Subject: [PATCH 3.13.y-ckt 074/121] nfs: fix pnfs direct write memory leak

3.13.11-ckt12 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peng Tao <tao.peng@...marydata.com>

commit 8c393f9a721c30a030049a680e1bf896669bb279 upstream.

For pNFS direct writes, layout driver may dynamically allocate ds_cinfo.buckets.
So we need to take care to free them when freeing dreq.

Ideally this needs to be done inside layout driver where ds_cinfo.buckets
are allocated. But buckets are attached to dreq and reused across LD IO iterations.
So I feel it's OK to free them in the generic layer.
