pnfs: defer release of pages in layoutget we have encountered a bug whereby reading a lot of files (copying fedora's /bin) from a pNFS mount and hitting Ctrl+C in the middle caused a general protection fault in xdr_shrink_bufhead. this function is called when decoding the response from LAYOUTGET. the decoding is done by a worker thread, and the caller of LAYOUTGET waits for the worker thread to complete. hitting Ctrl+C caused the synchronous wait to end and the next thing the caller does is to free the pages, so when the worker thread calls xdr_shrink_bufhead, the pages are gone. therefore, the cleanup of these pages has been moved to nfs4_layoutget_release.
