This won't be safe. Nothing guarantees that 'tmp' remains valid after
you drop the spin_lock.
I think you rather need to add a check for whether clnt->cl_dentry is in
the right state (NULL if RPC_PIPEFS_UMOUNT or non-NULL if
RPC_PIPEFS_MOUNT) before deciding whether or not to atomic_inc() and
drop the lock, so that you can restart the loop after calling
__rpc_pipefs_event().
