Subject: [PATCH] NFSv4.1: We must release the sequence id when we fail to get
 a session slot
X-Extended-Stable: 3.5

commit 2240a9e2d013d8269ea425b73e1d7a54c7bc141f upstream.

If we do not release the sequence id in cases where we fail to get a
session slot, then we can deadlock if we hit a recovery scenario.
