Trond Myklebust c77e22834a NFSv4: Fix a potential sleep while atomic in nfs4_do_reclaim()
John Hubbard reports seeing the following stack trace:

nfs4_do_reclaim
   rcu_read_lock /* we are now in_atomic() and must not sleep */
       nfs4_purge_state_owners
           nfs4_free_state_owner
               nfs4_destroy_seqid_counter
                   rpc_destroy_wait_queue
                       cancel_delayed_work_sync
                           __cancel_work_timer
                               __flush_work
                                   start_flush_work
                                       might_sleep:
                                        (kernel/workqueue.c:2975: BUG)

The solution is to separate out the freeing of the state owners
from nfs4_purge_state_owners(), and perform that outside the atomic
context.

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.
