[ Upstream commit bd3d16a887b0c19a2a20d35ffed499e3a3637feb ]

If the client is sending a layoutget, but the server issues a callback
to recall what it thinks may be an outstanding layout, then we may find
an uninitialised layout attached to the inode due to the layoutget.
In that case, it is appropriate to return NFS4ERR_NOMATCHING_LAYOUT
rather than NFS4ERR_DELAY, as the latter can end up deadlocking.
