    nfsd: move fsnotify on client creation outside spinlock
    
    [ Upstream commit 934bd07fae7e55232845f909f78873ab8678ca74 ]
    
    This was causing a "sleeping function called from invalid context"
    warning.
    
    I don't think we need the set_and_test_bit() here; clients move from
    unconfirmed to confirmed only once, under the client_lock.
    
    The (conf == unconf) is a way to check whether we're in that confirming
    case, hopefully that's not too obscure.
