NeilBrown 1bd773b4f0 nfsd: hold nfsd_mutex across entire netlink operation
Rather than using svc_get() and svc_put() to hold a stable reference to
the nfsd_svc for netlink lookups, simply hold the mutex for the entire
time.

The "entire" time isn't very long, and the mutex is not often contented.

This makes way for us to remove the refcounts of svc, which is more
confusing than useful.

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.

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.
