[PULL 08/12] block/nfs: Do not enter coroutine from CB

[Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>]

From: Hanna Czenczek <hreitz@redhat.com>

The reasoning I gave for why it would be safe to call aio_co_wake()
despite holding the mutex was wrong: It is true that the current request
will not re-acquire the mutex, but a subsequent request in the same
coroutine can.  Because the mutex is a non-coroutine mutex, this will
result in a deadlock.

Therefore, we must either not enter the coroutine here (only scheduling
it), or release the mutex around aio_co_wake().  I opt for the former,
as it is the behavior prior to the offending commit, and so seems safe
to do.

Fixes: deb35c129b859b9bec70fd42f856a0b7c1dc6e61
