Subject: [PATCH 4.7 096/186] pNFS: Handle NFS4ERR_RECALLCONFLICT correctly in LAYOUTGET

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

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

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

commit 66b53f325876703b7ab815c482cd104609f8772c upstream.

Instead of giving up altogether and falling back to doing I/O
through the MDS, which may make the situation worse, wait for
2 lease periods for the callback to resolve itself, and then
try destroying the existing layout.

Only if this was an attempt at getting a first layout, do we
give up altogether, as the server is clearly crazy.

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