2.4.0-pre10: svclock: missing unlock_kernel()

Linus,

I missed a conditional return in nlmsvc_notify_blocked() when we
should be releasing the BKL. Thanks to Jim Castleberry for pointing it out.

Please note, however, that there remain serious bugs in 2.4.0-pre10
fs/locks.c w.r.t. notification of the filesystem/lockd that need to be fixed before the 2.4.0 release.

Cheers,
Trond
