NeilBrown 5540899da8 nfsd: change nfs4_client_to_reclaim() to allocate data
[ Upstream commit 4552f4e3f2 ]

The calling convention for nfs4_client_to_reclaim() is clumsy in that
the caller needs to free memory if the function fails.  It is much
cleaner if the function frees its own memory.

This patch changes nfs4_client_to_reclaim() to re-allocate the .data
fields to be stored in the newly allocated struct nfs4_client_reclaim,
and to free everything on failure.

__cld_pipe_inprogress_downcall() needs to allocate the data anyway to
copy it from user-space, so now that data is allocated twice.  I think
that is a small price to pay for a cleaner interface.

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.
