NFS: Fix nfs_file_llseek()
After the BKL removal patches were applied to the rest of the NFS code, the BKL protection in nfs_file_llseek() is no longer sufficient to ensure that inode->i_size is read safely in generic_file_llseek_unlocked(). In order to fix the situation, we either have to replace the naked read of inode->i_size in generic_file_llseek_unlocked() with i_size_read(), or the whole thing needs to be executed under the inode->i_lock; In order to avoid disrupting other filesystems, avoid touching generic_file_llseek_unlocked() for now...
