+Subject: [PATCH] connection_check: restore original conn->data after the check
+
+- Save the original conn->data before it's changed to the specified
+ data transfer for the connection check and then restore it afterwards.
+
+This is a follow-up to 38d8e1b 2019-02-11.
+
+History:
+
+It was discovered a month ago that before checking whether to extract a
+dead connection that that connection should be associated with a "live"
+transfer for the check (ie original conn->data ignored and set to the
+passed in data). A fix was landed in 54b201b which did that and also
+cleared conn->data after the check. The original conn->data was not
+restored, so presumably it was thought that a valid conn->data was no
+longer needed.
+
+Several days later it was discovered that a valid conn->data was needed
+after the check and follow-up fix was landed in bbae24c which partially
+reverted the original fix and attempted to limit the scope of when
+conn->data was changed to only when pruning dead connections. In that
+case conn->data was not cleared and the original conn->data not
+restored.
+
+A month later it was discovered that the original fix was somewhat
+correct; a "live" transfer is needed for the check in all cases
+because original conn->data could be null which could cause a bad deref
+at arbitrary points in the check. A fix was landed in 38d8e1b which
+expanded the scope to all cases. conn->data was not cleared and the
+original conn->data not restored.
+
+A day later it was discovered that not restoring the original conn->data
+may lead to busy loops in applications that use the event interface, and
+given this observation it's a pretty safe assumption that there is some
+code path that still needs the original conn->data. This commit is the
+follow-up fix for that, it restores the original conn->data after the
+connection check.
