Zhouyi Zhou eb095c1403 NFS:remove redundant call to nfs_do_access
In function nfs_permission:
1. the rcu_read_lock and rcu_read_unlock around nfs_do_access
is unnecessary because the rcu critical data structure is already
protected in subsidiary function nfs_access_get_cached_rcu. No other
data structure needs rcu_read_lock in nfs_do_access.

2. call nfs_do_access once is enough, because:
2-1. when mask has MAY_NOT_BLOCK bit
The second call to nfs_do_access will not happen.

2-2. when mask has no MAY_NOT_BLOCK bit
The second call to nfs_do_access will happen if res == -ECHILD, which
means the first nfs_do_access goes out after statement if (!may_block).
The second call to nfs_do_access will go through this procedure once
again except continue the work after if (!may_block).
But above work can be performed by only one call to nfs_do_access
without mangling the mask flag.

Tested in x86_64

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
