Subject: [PATCH 4.19 043/118] NFSv4: Fix a NFSv4 state manager deadlock

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

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

[ Upstream commit aeabb3c96186a0f944fc2b1f25c84d5eb3a93fa9 ]

Fix a deadlock whereby the NFSv4 state manager can get stuck in the
delegation return code, waiting for a layout return to complete in
another thread. If the server reboots before that other thread
completes, then we need to be able to start a second state
manager thread in order to perform recovery.
