4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 56e0d71ef12f026d96213e45a662bde6bbff4676 upstream. If the server fails to return the attributes as part of an OPEN reply, and then reboots, we can end up hanging. The reason is that the client attempts to send a GETATTR in order to pick up the missing OPEN call, but fails to release the slot first, causing reboot recovery to deadlock.
