Subject: [PATCH] [17/98] NFSv4.1: Ensure state manager thread dies on last umount

2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@...app.com>

commit 47c2199b6eb5fbe38ddb844db7cdbd914d304f9c upstream.

Currently, the state manager may continue to try recovering state forever
even after the last filesystem to reference that nfs_client has umounted.
