	AFAICS, there's nothing to zero nn->bl_device_pipe->dentry after
nfs4blocklayout_unregister_sb(), is there?  If nothing else, what's
going to happen after mount/umount/mount with failing
nfs4blocklayout_register_sb()?  AFAICS, we'll have stale pointer to
dentry sitting in nn->bl_device_pipe->dentry, and call rpc_unlink()
on it while cleaning up after the failing mount.

	I don't think that's all there is to it, but it does smell like
a bug.
