Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/2] race of lockd inetaddr notifiers with nlmsvc_rqst
 change

lockd_inet[6]addr_event use nlmsvc_rqst without taken nlmsvc_mutex,
nlmsvc_rqst can be changed during execution of notifiers and crash the host.

Patch enables access to nlmsvc_rqst only when it was correctly initialized
and delays its cleanup until notifiers are in use.

NB: this patch depends on my patch "lockd: double unregister of inetaddr notifiers"
submitted separately.
