      J.R. Okajima reports the following deadlock:
      
      INFO: task kswapd0:305 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

      We can fix this by making the call to put_nfs_open_context() happen when we
      actually remove the write request from the inode (which is done by the
      nfsiod thread in this case).
