J. Bruce Fields efda760fe9 lockd: fix lockd shutdown race
As reported by David Jeffery: "a signal was sent to lockd while lockd
was shutting down from a request to stop nfs.  The signal causes lockd
to call restart_grace() which puts the lockd_net structure on the grace
list.  If this signal is received at the wrong time, it will occur after
lockd_down_net() has called locks_end_grace() but before
lockd_down_net() stops the lockd thread.  This leads to lockd putting
the lockd_net structure back on the grace list, then exiting without
anything removing it from the list."

So, perform the final locks_end_grace() from the the lockd thread; this
ensures it's serialized with respect to restart_grace().

============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
