commit 6ee65a773096ab3f39d9b00311ac983be5bdeb7c upstream. This reverts commit 94415b06eb8aed13481646026dc995f04a3a534a. That commit claimed to allow a client to get a read delegation when it was the only writer. Actually it allowed a client to get a read delegation when *any* client has a write open! The main problem is that it's depending on nfs4_clnt_odstate structures that are actually only maintained for pnfs exports. This causes clients to miss writes performed by other clients, even when there have been intervening closes and opens, violating close-to-open cache consistency. We can do this a different way, but first we should just revert this. I've added pynfs 4.1 test DELEG19 to test for this, as I should have done originally!

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
