H A Dnfs4client.cdiff c156618e15101a9cc8c815108fec0300a0ec6637 Tue Dec 05 19:55:44 CET 2017 Scott Mayhew <smayhew@redhat.com> nfs: fix a deadlock in nfs client initialization

The following deadlock can occur between a process waiting for a client
to initialize in while walking the client list during nfsv4 server trunking
detection and another process waiting for the nfs_clid_init_mutex so it
can initialize that client:

Process 1 Process 2
--------- ---------
spin_lock(&nn->nfs_client_lock);
list_add_tail(&CLIENTA->cl_share_link,
&nn->nfs_client_list);
spin_unlock(&nn->nfs_client_lock);
spin_lock(&nn->nfs_client_lock);
list_add_tail(&CLIENTB->cl_share_link,
&nn->nfs_client_list);
spin_unlock(&nn->nfs_client_lock);
mutex_lock(&nfs_clid_init_mutex);
nfs41_walk_client_list(clp, result, cred);
nfs_wait_client_init_complete(CLIENTA);
(waiting for nfs_clid_init_mutex)

Make sure nfs_match_client() only evaluates clients that have completed
initialization in order to prevent that deadlock.

This patch also fixes v4.0 trunking behavior by not marking the client
NFS_CS_READY until the clientid has been confirmed.
