[ Upstream commit bf32075256e9dd9c6b736859e2c5813981339908 ]

The error paths in nfsd_svc() are needlessly complex and can result in a
final call to svc_put() without nfsd_last_thread() being called.  This
results in the listening sockets not being closed properly.

The per-netns setup provided by nfsd_startup_new() and removed by
nfsd_shutdown_net() is needed precisely when there are running threads.
So we don't need nfsd_up_before.  We don't need to know if it *was* up.
We only need to know if any threads are left.  If none are, then we must
call nfsd_shutdown_net().  But we don't need to do that explicitly as
nfsd_last_thread() does that for us.

So simply call nfsd_last_thread() before the last svc_put() if there are
no running threads.  That will always do the right thing.

Also discard:
 pr_info("nfsd: last server has exited, flushing export cache\n");
It may not be true if an attempt to start the first server failed, and
it isn't particularly helpful and it simply reports normal behaviour.

Odd placement of these :)

Now queued up.

Wasn't sure I was supposed to add them to the actual
patch description because they weren't part of the
original upstream commit.

But if that's OK to do for stable patches, I will
add them in the usual spot next time.
