3.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Steve Dickson <steved@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 080af20cc945d110f9912d01cf6b66f94a375b8d upstream. There is a race between nfs4_state_manager() and nfs_server_remove_lists() that happens during a nfsv3 mount. The v3 mount notices there is already a supper block so nfs_server_remove_lists() called which uses the nfs_client_lock spin lock to synchronize access to the client list. At the same time nfs4_state_manager() is running through the client list looking for work to do, using the same lock. When nfs4_state_manager() wins the race to the list, a v3 client pointer is found and not ignored properly which causes the panic. Moving some protocol checks before the state checking avoids the panic.
