lockd: move lockd_start_svc() call into lockd_create_svc()
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(). Signed-off-by:NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by:
