Dexuan Cui 0d9138ffac vsock: Fix a lockdep warning in __vsock_release()
Lockdep is unhappy if two locks from the same class are held.

Fix the below warning for hyperv and virtio sockets (vmci socket code
doesn't have the issue) by using lock_sock_nested() when __vsock_release()
is called recursively:

============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
5.3.0+ #1 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
server/1795 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff8880c5158990 (sk_lock-AF_VSOCK){+.+.}, at: hvs_release+0x10/0x120 [hv_sock]

but task is already holding lock:
ffff8880c5158150 (sk_lock-AF_VSOCK){+.+.}, at: __vsock_release+0x2e/0xf0 [vsock]

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(sk_lock-AF_VSOCK);
  lock(sk_lock-AF_VSOCK);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

2 locks held by server/1795:
 #0: ffff8880c5d05ff8 (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#10){+.+.}, at: __sock_release+0x2d/0xa0
 #1: ffff8880c5158150 (sk_lock-AF_VSOCK){+.+.}, at: __vsock_release+0x2e/0xf0 [vsock]

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
