I think lock over list_del_init(&lseg->pls_lc_list) is enough, because
I put the spinlock outside of the loop because the critical section is
short enough and it should be faster than grabbing/dropping the inode
lock for every entry in the list, agree?

Yes, you are right.

Looked again I saw that issue is not so bad as seems.
Really, what is result of this issue? Only that lseg is in data->lseg_list, but without set NFS_LSEG_LAYOUTCOMMIT. The put_lseg is called correctly at nfs4_layoutcommit_release. So there is no any bug.
