backport "nfsd: Fix general protection fault in release_lock_stateid()" to 4.4

[Christian Theune]

Hi,

Iâd like to request inclusion of commit f46c445b79906a9da55c13e0a6f6b6a006b892fe into the 4.4 series. This happens to us regularly on a 4.4.59 machine and a review of the released later changes in 4.4 show that this hasnât made it into 4.4 yet.

Iâm guessing that using âOption 2â of the stable kernel rules is applicable here as the patch is already accepted in a newer kernel but even when it got the âCC: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxâ it didnât trickle down to 4.4.

Kind regards,
Christian

PS: Sorry Jeff, for getting a handful of mails about this as Iâm discovering the right way to get this done for the first time. Iâll be happy to pay this debt in beer or other beverages.
