NFS: Remove BKL from NFS lookup code
All dentry-related operations are already BKL-safe, since they are
protected by the VFS locking. No extra locks should be needed in the NFS
code.
In the case of nfs_revalidate_inode(), we're only doing an attribute
update (protected by the inode->i_lock).
In the case of nfs_lookup(), we're instantiating a new dentry, so there
should be no contention possible until after we call d_materialise_unique.
