NFS client bugfixes for Linux 3.8

- Fix a permissions problem when opening NFSv4 files that only have the
   exec bit set.
 - Fix a couple of typos in pNFS (inverted logic), and the mount parsing
   (missing pointer dereference).
 - Work around a series of deadlock issues due to workqueues using
   struct work_struct pointer address comparisons in the re-entrancy
   tests. Ensure that we don't free struct work_struct prematurely if
   our work function involves waiting for completion of other work
   items (e.g. by calling rpc_shutdown_client).
 - Revert the part of commit 168e4b3 that is causing unnecessary warnings
   to be issued in the nfsd callback code.
