[ 032/108] NFSv4.1: Remove a bogus BUG_ON() in nfs4_layoutreturn_done

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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

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

From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 47fbf7976e0b7d9dcdd799e2a1baba19064d9631 upstream.

Ever since commit 0a57cdac3f (NFSv4.1 send layoutreturn to fence
disconnected data server) we've been sending layoutreturn calls
while there is potentially still outstanding I/O to the data
servers. The reason we do this is to avoid races between replayed
writes to the MDS and the original writes to the DS.

When this happens, the BUG_ON() in nfs4_layoutreturn_done can
be triggered because it assumes that we would never call
layoutreturn without knowing that all I/O to the DS is
finished. The fix is to remove the BUG_ON() now that the
assumptions behind the test are obsolete.
