Fix a deadlock in channels, again.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This deadlock was caused when the channel was closed at just the right time, so
the extra `self.cnt.fetch_add` actually should have preserved the DISCONNECTED
state of the channel. by modifying this the channel entered a state such that
the port would never succeed in dropping.

This also moves the increment of self.steals until after the MAX_STEALS block.
The reason for this is that in 'fn recv()' the steals variable is decremented
immediately after the try_recv(), which could in theory set steals to -1 if it
was previously set to 0 in try_recv().

Closes rust-lang#12340
