Because I made the afs_call struct share pointers to an afs_server object
and an afs_vlserver object to save space, afs_put_call() calls
afs_put_server() on afs_vlserver object (which is only meant for the
afs_server object) because it sees that call->server isn't NULL.
This means that the afs_vlserver object gets unpredictably and randomly
modified, depending on what config options are set (such as lockdep).
Fix this by getting rid of the union and having two non-overlapping
pointers in the afs_call struct.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
