rds: MP-RDS may use an invalid c_path
rds_sendmsg() calls rds_send_mprds_hash() to find a c_path to use to send a message. Suppose the RDS connection is not yet up. In rds_send_mprds_hash(), it does if (conn->c_npaths == 0) wait_event_interruptible(conn->c_hs_waitq, (conn->c_npaths != 0)); If it is interrupted before the connection is set up, rds_send_mprds_hash() will return a non-zero hash value. Hence rds_sendmsg() will use a non-zero c_path to send the message. But if the RDS connection ends up to be non-MP capable, the message will be lost as only the zero c_path can be used.
