Though the changelog doesn't make sense to me.  What does it mean for
the "state of the stid" to be "gauranteed by 2 locks"?

The following paragraph suggests that once we acquire st_mutex, sc_type
can no longer change, but that doesn't look right--e.g.
nfsd4_release_lockowner calls unhash-lock_stateid->nfs4_unhash_stid with
only the cl_lock held.
