3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Sage Weil <s...@inktank.com> (cherry picked from commit f3dea7edd3d449fe7a6d402c1ce56a294b985261) (cherry picked from commit 642c0dbde32f34baa7886e988a067089992adc8f) We need to flush the msgr workqueue during mon_client shutdown to ensure that any work affecting our embedded ceph_connection is finished so that we can be safely destroyed. Previously, we were flushing the work queue after osd_client shutdown and before mon_client shutdown to ensure that any osd connection refs to authorizers are flushed. Remove the redundant flush, and document in the comment that the mon_client flush is needed to cover that case as well.
