SUNRPC: Fix a deadlock in rpc_client_register()
Commit 38481605 (SUNRPC: fix races on PipeFS MOUNT notifications) introduces a regression when we call rpc_setup_pipedir() with RPCSEC_GSS as the auth flavour. By calling rpcauth_create() while holding the sn->pipefs_sb_lock, we end up deadlocking in gss_pipes_dentries_create_net(). Fix is to register the client and release the mutex before calling rpcauth_create().
