Subject: NFSv4.1: Hold reference to layout hdr in layoutget
From: Weston Andros Adamson <dros@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit a47970ff7814718fec31b7d966747c6aa1a3545f upstream.
This fixes an oops where a LAYOUTGET is in still in the rpciod queue,
but the requesting processes has been killed. Without this, killing
the process does the final pnfs_put_layout_hdr() and sets NFS_I(inode)->layout
to NULL while the LAYOUTGET rpc task still references it.
Example oops:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000080
IP: [<ffffffffa01bd586>] pnfs_choose_layoutget_stateid+0x37/0xef [nfsv4]
