Add nfs_to_nfsd_file_put_local() interface to fix race with nfsd module unload. Similarly, use RCU around nfs_open_local_fh()'s error path call to nfs_to->nfsd_serv_put(). Holding RCU ensures that NFS will safely _call and return_ from its nfs_to calls into the NFSD functions nfsd_file_put_local() and nfsd_serv_put(). Otherwise, if RCU isn't used then there is a narrow window when NFS's reference for the nfsd_file and nfsd_serv are dropped and the NFSD module could be unloaded, which could result in a crash from the return instruction for either nfs_to->nfsd_file_put_local() or nfs_to->nfsd_serv_put().

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.
