nfs41_callback_svc does most of its work while in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE,
which is just wrong. Fix that by finishing the wait immediately if we've
found that the list has something on it.

Also, we don't expect this kthread to accept signals, so we should be
using a TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE sleep instead. That however, opens us up
hung task warnings from the watchdog, so have the schedule_timeout
wake up every 60s if there's no callback activity.
