[ Upstream commit b73a2972041bee70eb0cbbb25fa77828c63c916b ]
lockd_start_svc() only needs to be called once, just after the svc is
created. If the start fails, the svc is discarded too.
It thus makes sense to call lockd_start_svc() from lockd_create_svc().
This allows us to remove the test against nlmsvc_rqst at the start of
lockd_start_svc() - it must always be NULL.
lockd_up() only held an extra reference on the svc until a thread was
created - then it dropped it. The thread - and thus the extra reference
- will remain until kthread_stop() is called.
Now that the thread is created in lockd_create_svc(), the extra
reference can be dropped there. So the 'serv' variable is no longer
needed in lockd_up().
