AFAICS, there's nothing to zero nn->bl_device_pipe->dentry after
nfs4blocklayout_unregister_sb(), is there? If nothing else, what's
going to happen after mount/umount/mount with failing
nfs4blocklayout_register_sb()? AFAICS, we'll have stale pointer to
dentry sitting in nn->bl_device_pipe->dentry, and call rpc_unlink()
on it while cleaning up after the failing mount.
I don't think that's all there is to it, but it does smell like
a bug.
