Trond Myklebust a316fd9d30 pNFS: Fix a deadlock when returning a delegation during open() 
[ Upstream commit 857bf90562 ]

Ben Coddington reports seeing a hang in the following stack trace:

The issue is that the delegreturn is being asked to wait for a layout
return that cannot complete because a state recovery was initiated. The
state recovery cannot complete until the open() finishes processing the
delegations it was given.

The solution is to propagate the existing flags that indicate a
non-blocking call to the function pnfs_roc(), so that it knows not to
wait in this situation.

README 

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 reStructuredText 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.
