Trond Myklebust 994b15b983 NFSv4.1 fix infinite loop on I/O.
The previous fix broke recovery of delegated stateids because it assumes
that if we did not mark the delegation as suspect, then the delegation has
effectively been revoked, and so it removes that delegation irrespectively
of whether or not it is valid and still in use. While this is "mostly
harmless" for ordinary I/O, we've seen pNFS fail with LAYOUTGET spinning
in an infinite loop while complaining that we're using an invalid stateid
(in this case the all-zero stateid).

What we rather want to do here is ensure that the delegation is always
correctly marked as needing testing when that is the case. So we want
to close the loophole offered by nfs4_schedule_stateid_recovery(),
which marks the state as needing to be reclaimed, but not the
delegation that may be backing it.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
