This is the second patchset to fix the use-after-free problem in lockd, and to convert lockd to use the kthread API instead of kernel_thread. The main change from the last patchset is that svc_prepare_thread is now exported and svc_create_kthread no longer calls it. The caller of svc_create_kthread must now call it (or do the equivalent to set up the svc_rqst.
Tested against the reproducer I have for the main issue (detailed in patch #7). As always, comments and suggestions are appreciated.
