LOCKD: Fix a deadlock in nlm_traverse_files()
nlm_traverse_files() is not allowed to hold the nlm_file_mutex while calling nlm_inspect file, since it may end up calling nlm_release_file() when releaseing the blocks. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> (cherry picked from e558d3cde986e04f68afe8c790ad68ef4b94587a commit)
