I was concerned about nbd_xmit_timeout as well. There's also a call to
kernel_sock_shutdown,
while holding the spin_lock in the timeout. The above is ok for
sock_shutdown but some kind of change
is also required in nbd_xmit_timeout as well. My patch addressed both these.

Can you have a look at that again.
