Well over a year ago I made other attempts to fix the problem of NFS failing to send an unlock when signalled. Those attempts were terrible. Here's yet another version, this time using the approach suggested by Jeff Layton to utilize an RPC waitqueue to defer unlock tasks until IO has completed. In order to do this for NLM without violating all the layers, a new nlmclnt_operations struct is defined and passed in to allow the NLM client to call back out to NFS at various stages. Comments and review are welcomed. since v1: - add Christoph's reviewed-by on 1/4 and 2/4 and fixup switch indentation on 2/4 since v2: - don't sleep in rpciod to wait for I/O completion, just send the unlock immediately for both v3 and v4. since v3: - don't just skip the wait for FL_CLOSE. Instead, build new machinery into NLM to allow waiting in rpc_call_prepare().
