Subject: [PATCH 4.14 038/193] NFS: make nfs_match_client killable

[ Upstream commit 950a578c6128c2886e295b9c7ecb0b6b22fcc92b ]

    Actually we don't do anything with return value from
    nfs_wait_client_init_complete in nfs_match_client, as a
    consequence if we get a fatal signal and client is not
    fully initialised, we'll loop to "again" label

    This has been proven to cause soft lockups on some scenarios
    (no-carrier but configured network interfaces)
