OK, that makes sense, BUT
If pnfs_find_get_deviceid can see de_ref==0 it's racing with pnfs_put_deviceid
which is about to free the structure - i.e. pnfs_find_get_deviceid may cause
use after free bugs.
So I'm confused if the current scheme works at all.

Andy, it seems to me this optimization is a bit premature
and we'd be better off reverting to using simple spin locks rather the
rcu locks, certainly until we have a good testing infrastructure
for cb_notifydeviceid.  I'm not sure how much we're saving anyhow.
