J. Bruce Fields 28df3d1539 nfsd: clients don't need to break their own delegations
We currently revoke read delegations on any write open or any operation
that modifies file data or metadata (including rename, link, and
unlink).  But if the delegation in question is the only read delegation
and is held by the client performing the operation, that's not really
necessary.

It's not always possible to prevent this in the NFSv4.0 case, because
there's not always a way to determine which client an NFSv4.0 delegation
came from.  (In theory we could try to guess this from the transport
layer, e.g., by assuming all traffic on a given TCP connection comes
from the same client.  But that's not really correct.)

In the NFSv4.1 case the session layer always tells us the client.

This patch should remove such self-conflicts in all cases where we can
reliably determine the client from the compound.

To do that we need to track "who" is performing a given (possibly
lease-breaking) file operation.  We're doing that by storing the
information in the svc_rqst and using kthread_data() to map the current
task back to a svc_rqst.
