Title:
  [SRU] fix unsafe access in unregister_conn()

Status in ceph package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in ceph source package in Focal:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  without holding sufficient locks, accept_conn and shutdown_connections in AsyncMessenger could cause OSD processes crash

  [Test plan]
  run ceph_test_async_networkstack repeatedly, this will trigger many async messenger events and make sure
  1. OSD process not crash
  2. no deadlock

  [Where problems could occur]
  hold sufficient locks and decrement l_msgr_active_connections can avoid OSD processes to crash due to race condition
  The only problem I can imagine is deadlock if one process is holding lock A and wait for lock B, the there is another process holding lock B and wait for lock A
