4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit b88fa69eaa8649f11828158c7b65c4bcd886ebd5 upstream. Ensure that the client conforms to the normative behaviour described in RFC5661 Section 12.7.2: "If a client believes its lease has expired, it MUST NOT send I/O to the storage device until it has validated its lease." So ensure that we wait for the lease to be validated before using the layout.
