3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 64590daa9e0dfb3aad89e3ab9230683b76211d5b upstream. 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.
