[PATCH] knfsd: Allow lockd to drop replies as appropriate

It is possible for the ->fopen callback from lockd into nfsd to find that an
answer cannot be given straight away (an upcall is needed) and so the request
has to be 'dropped', to be retried later.  That error status is not currently
propagated back.

So:
  Change nlm_fopen to return nlm error codes (rather than a private
  protocol) and define a new nlm_drop_reply code.
  Cause nlm_drop_reply to cause the rpc request to get rpc_drop_reply
  when this error comes back.
  Cause svc_process to drop a request which returns a status of
  rpc_drop_reply.
