NeilBrown d688d8585e nfsd: allow admin-revoked NFSv4.0 state to be freed.
For NFSv4.1 and later the client easily discovers if there is any
admin-revoked state and will then find and explicitly free it.

For NFSv4.0 there is no such mechanism.  The client can only find that
state is admin-revoked if it tries to use that state, and there is no
way for it to explicitly free the state.  So the server must hold on to
the stateid (at least) for an indefinite amount of time.  A
RELEASE_LOCKOWNER request might justify forgetting some of these
stateids, as would the whole clients lease lapsing, but these are not
reliable.

This patch takes two approaches.

Whenever a client uses an revoked stateid, that stateid is then
discarded and will not be recognised again.  This might confuse a client
which expect to get NFS4ERR_ADMIN_REVOKED consistently once it get it at
all, but should mostly work.  Hopefully one error will lead to other
resources being closed (e.g.  process exits), which will result in more
stateid being freed when a CLOSE attempt gets NFS4ERR_ADMIN_REVOKED.

Also, any admin-revoked stateids that have been that way for more than
one lease time are periodically revoke.

No actual freeing of state happens in this patch.  That will come in
future patches which handle the different sorts of revoked state.

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.
