Both nfs41_walk_client_list and nfs40_walk_client_list expect the 'status' variable to be set to the value -NFS4ERR_STALE_CLIENTID if the loop fails to find a match. The problem is that the 'pos->cl_cons_state > NFS_CS_READY' changes the value of 'status', and sets it either to the value '0' (which indicates success), or to the value EINTR.
