lockd: fix race in nlm_release()
The sm_count is decremented to zero but left on the nsm_handles list.
So in the space between decrementing sm_count and acquiring nsm_mutex,
it is possible for another task to find this nsm_handle, increment the
use count and then enter nsm_release itself.
Thus there's nothing to prevent the nsm being freed before we acquire
nsm_mutex here.
