[PATCH 01/10] nfsd: fix BUG_ON in nfsd4_alloc_layout_stateid on racing delegation revoke

Message-ID <[email protected]>
nfsd4_alloc_layout_stateid reads fp->fi_deleg_file without holding
fi_lock when the parent stateid is a delegation. A concurrent delegation
revoke via the laundromat can clear fi_deleg_file under fi_lock, causing
nfsd_file_get() to return NULL and triggering the BUG_ON.

This race is client-reachable: two NFS clients can trigger it by having
one hold a delegation while another opens the same file to force a
recall. When the first client doesn't respond to the recall, the
laundromat revokes it. A concurrent LAYOUTGET from any client using the
delegation stateid hits the race window.

Fix this by taking fi_lock around the fi_deleg_file read in the
SC_TYPE_DELEG path, and replacing the BUG_ON with a graceful error
return that cleans up the partially-initialized layout stateid.
