We are not allowed to call pnfs_mark_matching_lsegs_return() without also holding a reference to the layout header, since doing so could lead to the reference count going to zero when we call pnfs_layout_remove_lseg(). This again can lead to a hang when we get to nfs4_evict_inode() and are unable to clear the layout pointer. pnfs_layout_return_unused_byserver() is guilty of this behaviour, and has been seen to trigger the refcount warning prior to a hang.
