Subject: [PATCH 4.7 095/186] pNFS: Fix post-layoutget error handling in pnfs_update_layout()

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

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

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@...marydata.com>

commit 56b38a1f7c781519eef09c1668a3c97ea911f86b upstream.

The non-retry error path is currently broken and ends up releasing the
reference to the layout twice. It also can end up clearing the
NFS_LAYOUT_FIRST_LAYOUTGET flag twice, causing a race.

In addition, the retry path will fail to decrement the plh_outstanding
counter.

Fixes: 183d9e7b112aa ("pnfs: rework LAYOUTGET retry handling")
