In _pnfs_return_layout:

lrp pointer is checked for NULL after it was already accessed.

The rational here is that in _pnfs_return_layout we want to
de-ref and release the layout regardless of if we sent the
return or not (forgetfull). An eventual recall can return -ENOMATCHING
instead of -EDELAY.

So to keep the reasoning above, copy the stateid twice.

Benny if it is OK to not release the layout on -ENOMEM then the check
could just be moved above the spin_lock(), and the put_layout_hdr removed.

Rrrr the lrp is leaked here

I'll send a second squashme. Ignore that one please
