[PATCH 7/8] NFS: remove error handling for callers of rpc_new_task()

[NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com>]

Since commit 62b2417e84ba ("sunrpc: don't check for failure from mempool_alloc()")

rpc_new_task() cannot fail, so functions which fail only when it failed
also cannot fail.
This means we no longer need to check for errors from:

  rpc_run_task()
  rpc_run_bc_task()
  __nlm_async_call()
  nfs4_do_unlck()
  _nfs41_proc_sequence()
  _nfs41_free_stateid()
  nfs_async_rename()
  rpc_call_null()
  rpc_call_null_helper()
  rpcb_call_async()

 Hi,
  if you think there might ever be a need to allow
  rpc_new_task() to fail in the future, we might not
  want to take this approach.
