Subject: [PATCH] cephfs: Fix scheduler warning due to nested blocking

try_get_cap_refs can be used as a condition in a wait_event* calls.
This is all fine until it has to call __ceph_do_pending_vmtruncate,
which in turn acquires the i_truncate_mutex. This leads to a situation
in which a task's state is !TASK_RUNNING and at the same time it's
trying to acquire a sleeping primitive. In essence a nested sleeping
primitives are being used. This causes the following warning:

WARNING: CPU: 22 PID: 11064 at kernel/sched/core.c:7631 __might_sleep+0x9f/0xb0()

This happens since wait_event_interruptible can interfere with the
mutex locking code, since they both fiddle with the task state.

Fix the issue by using the newly-added nested blocking infrastructure
in 61ada528dea0 ("sched/wait: Provide infrastructure to deal with
nested blocking")
