In case of a nonempty list, the return on error here is obviously bogus;
it ends up being a pointer to the list head instead of to any valid
delegation on the list.

In particular, if nfsd4_delegreturn() hits this case, and you're quite unlucky,
then renew_client may oops, and it may take an embarassingly long time to
figure out why.  Facepalm.

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000090
