NFSv4.1: Hold reference to layout hdr in layoutget This fixes an oops where a LAYOUTGET is in still in the rpciod queue, but the requesting processes has been killed. Without this, killing the process does the final pnfs_put_layout_hdr() and sets NFS_I(inode)->layout to NULL while the LAYOUTGET rpc task still references it.
