I was mislead by the fact that destroy_client and nfs4_state_shutdown_net
care to acquire the recall_lock for traversing the clp->cl_delegations
and nn->del_recall_lru lists, respectively.

Now nfs4_state_shutdown_net, although its comment says it should be
called with the state lock held (SHOULD or should, or should it be MUST? :)
It doesn't seem like nfsd_shutdown_net acquires the state lock.

Therefore, we either need to grab the state lock in nfs4_state_shutdown_net
which adds yet another problem to fix, or access dl_perclnt always under the
spin lock.
