Hi Jeff,
 I have a report of a crash in 3.18 because fl->fl_lmops is NULL in the above.
   https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=912569

I assume this happens because a file_lock is found which is not IS_LEASE.
When that happens, the loop will abort, but fl will not be NULL.
As non-LEASE locks have  a NULL fl_lmops, we crash.

I would be inclined to put the code back the way it was, and just move the
trace_generic_delete_lease call.

Alternately we could make it

  if (fl && IS_LEASE(fl))
          error = fl->fl_lmops-> .....

What do you think?
