Subject: [PATCH 5.13 095/380] NFSv4/pNFS: Always allow update of a zero valued layout barrier

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@...merspace.com>

[ Upstream commit 45baadaad7bf9183651fb74f4ed1200da48505a5 ]

A zero value for the layout barrier indicates that it has been cleared
(since seqid '0' is an illegal value), so we should always allow it to
be updated.
