Thanks. I'll merge that onto my nfsd41-for-2.6.31 branch.
I was thinking whether the spin_unlock should be done on
the err: label and separate it from the success path.
I'll look into that along with reworking the state lock
as renewing the client (or actually marking it for renew)
will no longer need the lock.
