3.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Peng Tao <tao.peng@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 4bd5a980de87d2b5af417485bde97b8eb3d6cf6a upstream. nfs4_layoutget_release() drops layout hdr refcnt. Grab the refcnt early so that it is safe to call .release in case nfs4_alloc_pages fails.
