=============== commit 92a56555bd576c61b27a5cab9f38a33a1e9a1df5 upstream. If a SIGKILL is sent to a task waiting in __nfs_iocounter_wait, it will busy-wait or soft lockup in its while loop. nfs_wait_bit_killable won't sleep, and the loop won't exit on the error return. Stop the busy-wait by breaking out of the loop when nfs_wait_bit_killable returns an error.
