David Howells 1f0fc3374f afs: Give an afs_server object a ref on the afs_cell object it points to
Give an afs_server object a ref on the afs_cell object it points to so that
the cell doesn't get deleted before the server record.

Whilst this is circular (cell -> vol -> server_list -> server -> cell), the
ref only pins the memory, not the lifetime as that's controlled by the
activity counter.  When the volume's activity counter reaches 0, it
detaches from the cell and discards its server list; when a cell's activity
counter reaches 0, it discards its root volume.  At that point, the
circularity is cut.

Fixes: d2ddc776a4 ("afs: Overhaul volume and server record caching and fileserver rotation")

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 reStructuredText 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.
