Currently the CB_RECALL_ANY job takes a cl_rpc_users reference to the
client. While a callback job is technically an RPC that counter is
really more for client-driven RPCs, and this has the effect of
preventing the client from being unhashed until the callback completes.
If nfsd decides to send a CB_RECALL_ANY just as the client reboots, we
can end up in a situation where the callback can't complete on the (now
dead) callback channel, but the new client can't connect because the old
client can't be unhashed. This usually manifests as a NFS4ERR_DELAY
return on the CREATE_SESSION operation.
The job is only holding a reference to the client so it can clear a flag
in the after the RPC completes. Fix this by having CB_RECALL_ANY instead
hold a reference to the cl_nfsdfs.cl_ref. Typically we only take that
sort of reference when dealing with the nfsdfs info files, but it should
work appropriately here to ensure that the nfs4_client doesn't
disappear.
