Hello Linus-
This pull request contains a number of crasher fixes that were not ready
for the initial pull request last week.
In particular, Jeff's patch attempts to address reference count underflows
in NFSD's filecache, which have been very difficult to track down because
there is no reliable reproducer.
Common failure modes:
- https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216691#c11
- https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216674#c6
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2138605
The race windows were found by inspection and the clean-ups appear sensible
and pass regression testing, so we include them here in the hope that they
address the problem. However we remain vigilant because we don't have 100%
certainty yet that the problem is fully addressed.
