Also, one obvious screwup that I just noticed.

    nfsd4: fix connection allocation in sequence()
    
    We're doing an allocation under a spinlock, and ignoring the
    possibility of allocation failure.
    
    A better fix wouldn't require an unnecessary allocation in the common
    case, but we'll leave that for later.
