In nfs4_wait_clnt_recover(), hold a reference to the clp being
waited on.  The state manager can reduce clp->cl_count to 1, in
which case the nfs_put_client() in nfs4_run_state_manager() can
free *clp before wait_on_bit() returns and allows
nfs4_wait_clnt_recover() to run again.

The behavior at that point is non-deterministic.  If the waited-on
bit still happens to be zero, wait_on_bit() will wake the waiter as
expected.  If the bit is set again (say, if the memory was poisoned
when freed) wait_on_bit() can leave the waiter asleep.

This is a narrow fix which ensures the safety of accessing *clp in
nfs4_wait_clnt_recover(), but does not address the continued use
of a possibly freed *clp after nfs4_wait_clnt_recover() returns
(see nfs_end_delegation_return(), for example).
