Subject: SUNRPC: Ensure call_connect_status() deals correctly with SOFTCONN
 tasks

commit 1fa3e2eb9db07f30a605c66d1a2fdde4b24e74d5 upstream.

Don't schedule an rpc_delay before checking to see if the task
is a SOFTCONN because the tk_callback from the delay (__rpc_atrun)
clears the task status before the rpc_exit_task can be run.
