5.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 080abad71e99d2becf38c978572982130b927a28 ]
Commit f49169c97fce ("NFSD: Remove svc_serv_ops::svo_module") removed
calls to module_put_and_kthread_exit() from threads that acted as SUNRPC
servers and had a related svc_serv_ops structure. This was correct.
It ALSO removed the module_put_and_kthread_exit() call from
nfs4_run_state_manager() which is NOT a SUNRPC service.
Consequently every time the NFSv4 state manager runs the module count
increments and won't be decremented. So the nfsv4 module cannot be
unloaded.
So restore the module_put_and_kthread_exit() call.
Fixes: f49169c97fce ("NFSD: Remove svc_serv_ops::svo_module")
