[PATCH] nfsd: allow reaping files that are still under writeback

[Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>]

There's no reason to delay reaping an nfsd_file just because its
underlying inode is still under writeback. nfsd just relies on client
activity or the local flusher threads to do writeback.

Holding the file open does nothing to facilitate that, nor does it help
with tracking errors. Just allow it to close and let the kernel do
writeback as it normally would.
