Some NFS and NLM routines doesn't check RPC task tk_status if rpc_wait_for_completion_task() returned 0 but have to. The best way to handle such RPC task error, from my pow, is to return RPC task tk_status from rpc_wait_for_completion_task() instead of 0 value. This approach will cover RPC tasks error status since NFS and NLM routines checks rpc_wait_for_completion_task() result.
