NFS: Ensure that we free the rpc_task after read and write cleanups are done
commit 6db6dd7d3fd8f7c765dabc376493d6791ab28bd6 upstream.
This patch ensures that we free the rpc_task after the cleanup callbacks
are done in order to avoid a deadlock problem that can be triggered if
the callback needs to wait for another workqueue item to complete.
