NFSD: fix possible oops when nfsd/pool_stats is closed.
If /proc/fs/nfsd/pool_stats is open when the last nfsd thread exits, then
when the file is closed a NULL pointer is dereferenced.
This is because nfsd_pool_stats_release() assumes that the
pointer to the svc_serv cannot become NULL while a reference is held.
This used to be the case but a recent patch split nfsd_last_thread() out
from nfsd_put(), and clearing the pointer is done in nfsd_last_thread().
This is easily reproduced by running
rpc.nfsd 8 ; ( rpc.nfsd 0;true) < /proc/fs/nfsd/pool_stats
Fortunately nfsd_pool_stats_release() has easy access to the svc_serv
pointer, and so can call svc_put() on it directly.
Fixes: 9f28a97 ("nfsd: separate nfsd_last_thread() from nfsd_put()")
