[Devel] [PATCH VZ10] fs/fuse kio: track pending kRPC connect via state machine only

Rework the previous fix ("fs/fuse kio: fix kRPC connect issues") to not
require the new struct pcs_krpc member "connect_req", so the fix can be
shipped as a livepatch.

Both things connect_req was tracking are already derivable from the
existing state machine once PCS_KRPC_STATE_CONNECT is made to mean
exactly "a connect req is in flight":

 - krpc_connect_done() settles a failed connect back to UNCONN instead
   of leaving the state in CONNECT forever;

 - pcs_krpc_abort() no longer resets CONNECT to UNCONN: the req is
   still in flight, and only its completion settles the state;

 - pcs_krpc_connect() proceeds only from UNCONN or ABORTED, refusing
   new connects (-EPERM) while a req is in flight - at most one connect
   req exists at a time, same as with the connect_req check;

 - pcs_krpc_poll() reports EPOLLERR on UNCONN: poll bails out earlier
   unless ctx->gen == krpc->gen, and the current session can only be in
   UNCONN if its connect failed or was aborted, which is what the
   (CONNECT && !connect_req) test used to detect.

gen only advances in pcs_krpc_connect(), which is blocked during
CONNECT, so within that state the in-flight req always carries the
current gen and krpc_connect_done()'s existing staleness check is
sufficient.
