[Devel] [PATCH v3] NFSd: set nfsd_serv to NULL after service destruction

[Stanislav Kinsbursky]

v3:
1) Rebased for 3.6 kernel.

v2:
1) Set global nfsd_serv pointer to NULL only if no running threads left.

Otherwise we will get NULL pointer dereference on last thread exit in
nfsd_last_thread().
This patch also introduces nfsd_destroy() helper for per-net NFSd shutdown.
