This patch converts the NFSv4 callback kernel thread to the kthread API. In addition to being generally cleaner this also removes the dependency on signals when shutting down the thread. Note that this patch depends on the recent patches to svc_recv() to make it check kthread_should_stop() periodically. Those patches are in Bruce's tree at the moment and are slated for 2.6.26 along with the lockd conversion, so this conversion is probably also appropriate for 2.6.26.
