nfsd: hold ->cl_lock for hash_delegation_locked()

The protocol for creating a new state in nfsd is to allocate the state
leaving it largely uninitialised, add that state to the ->cl_stateids
idr so as to reserve a state-id, then complete initialisation of the
state and only set ->sc_type to non-zero once the state is fully
initialised.

If a state is found in the idr with ->sc_type == 0, it is ignored.
The ->cl_lock lock is used to avoid races - it is held while checking
sc_type during lookup, and held when a non-zero value is stored in
->sc_type.

... except... hash_delegation_locked() finalises the initialisation of a
delegation state, but does NOT hold ->cl_lock.

So this patch takes ->cl_lock at the appropriate time w.r.t other locks,
and so ensures there are no races (which are extremely unlikely in any
case).
As ->fi_lock is often taken when ->cl_lock is held, we need to take
->cl_lock first of those two.
Currently ->cl_lock and state_lock are never both taken at the same time.
We need both for this patch so an arbitrary choice is needed concerning
which to take first.  As state_lock is more global, it might be more
contended, so take it first.
