nfsd4: remove use of mutex for file_hashtable

As part of reducing the scope of the client_mutex, and in order to
remove the need for mutexes from the callback code (so that callbacks
can be done as asynchronous rpc calls), move manipulations of the
file_hashtable under the recall_lock.

Update the relevant comments while we're here.
