[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 068/305] nfs4: resend LAYOUTGET when there is a race that changes the seqid

[Kamal Mostafa]

4.2.8-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton at poochiereds.net>

commit 4f2e9dce0c6348a95eaa56ade9bab18572221088 upstream.

pnfs_layout_process will check the returned layout stateid against what
the kernel has in-core. If it turns out that the stateid we received is
older, then we should resend the LAYOUTGET instead of falling back to
MDS I/O.
