Yeah, the other problem is that that comment is ambiguous. Does it mean
the state_lock or the client_mutex (which is also sometimes termed
"state lock" in this code).

True, but since we're destroying it anyway we don't need to revoke it.
Still it is less confusing and since I'm respinning for other reasons,
I can change that too...

At this point in the series, the client_mutex does. There's a patch
later that protects the cl_revoked list with the cl_lock, but it
depends on some other locking changes and so it's harder to move it to
the front of the series just yet.

Thanks. Do you mean destroy_delegation? destroy_revoked_delegation
still exists -- destroy_delegation is removed, but it's just a wrapper
around nfs4_put_delegation at this point...
