[PATCH 3.2 57/60] Failing to send a CLOSE if file is opened WRONLY and server reboots on a 4.x mount

3.2.73-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Olga Kornievskaia <aglo@xxxxxxxxx>

commit a41cbe86df3afbc82311a1640e20858c0cd7e065 upstream.

A test case is as the description says:
open(foobar, O_WRONLY);
sleep() --> reboot the server
close(foobar)

The bug is because in nfs4state.c in nfs4_reclaim_open_state() a few
line before going to restart, there is
clear_bit(NFS4CLNT_RECLAIM_NOGRACE, &state->flags).

NFS4CLNT_RECLAIM_NOGRACE is a flag for the client states not open
owner states. Value of NFS4CLNT_RECLAIM_NOGRACE is 4 which is the
value of NFS_O_WRONLY_STATE in nfs4_state->flags. So clearing it wipes
out state and when we go to close it, âcall_closeâ doesnât get set as
state flag is not set and CLOSE doesnât go on the wire.
