rmacklem 5309296f87 A deadlock in the NFSv4 server with vfs.nfsd.enable_locallocks=1
was reported via email. This was caused by a LOR between the
sleep lock used to serialize the local locking (nfsrv_locklf())
and locking the vnode. I believe this patch fixes the problem
by delaying relocking of the vnode until the sleep lock is
unlocked (nfsrv_unlocklf()). To avoid nfsvno_advlock() having the side
effect of unlocking the vnode, unlocking the vnode was moved to before
the functions that call nfsvno_advlock().
It shouldn't affect the execution of the default case where
vfs.nfsd.enable_locallocks=0.
