pNFS: honor clora_changed when recalling a layout
When the metadata server recalls a layout with clora_changed FALSE, the layout is not changing and the client may complete its modified writes to the storage devices before returning the layout (RFC 8881, Section 20.3.3). Only when clora_changed is TRUE -- the server is restriping, or a storage device has failed -- should the client stop writing to the storage devices and redirect through the metadata server. Since commit b739a5bd9d9f ("NFSv4/flexfiles: Cancel I/O if the layout is recalled or revoked") the client cancels in-flight I/O on every recall, regardless of clora_changed. For an unchanged recall this abandons writes whose data may already have reached the storage device; such a write can then land after the LAYOUTRETURN, which the server sees as a write without a layout. Pass the recall's clora_changed value through pnfs_mark_matching_lsegs_return() and only cancel in-flight I/O when the layout is actually changing. When it is not, the existing deferred return path waits for the in-flight writes to drain before sending the LAYOUTRETURN. Other callers, which are tearing down or returning the layout for their own reasons, continue to cancel as before.
