NLM: Convert lockd to use kthreads

Have lockd_up start lockd using kthread_run. With this change,
lockd_down now blocks until lockd actually exits, so there's no longer
need for the waitqueue code at the end of lockd_down. This also means
that only one lockd can be running at a time which simplifies the code
within lockd's main loop.

This also adds a check for kthread_should_stop in the main loop of
nlmsvc_retry_blocked and after that function returns. There's no sense
continuing to retry blocks if lockd is coming down anyway.
