H A Dnfs4state.c0a262ffb Mon Jun 17 16:29:40 CDT 2013 J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com> nfsd4: do not throw away 4.1 lock state on last unlock

This reverts commit eb2099f31b0f090684a64ef8df44a30ff7c45fc2 "nfsd4:
release lockowners on last unlock in 4.1 case". Trond identified
language in rfc 5661 section 8.2.4 which forbids this behavior:

Stateids associated with byte-range locks are an exception.
They remain valid even if a LOCKU frees all remaining locks, so
long as the open file with which they are associated remains
open, unless the client frees the stateids via the FREE_STATEID
operation.

And bakeathon 2013 testing found a 4.1 freebsd client was getting an
incorrect BAD_STATEID return from a FREE_STATEID in the above situation
and then failing.

The spec language honestly was probably a mistake but at this point with
implementations already following it we're probably stuck with that.
