The sunrpc cache_ioctl function does not need the big kernel lock
because it uses its own queue_lock already.

rpc_pipe_ioctl apparently should be using i_lock like the other
operations on the pipe file descriptor do.

I missed this one because I considered the use of the BKL to
be part of nfs/nfsd, but in this is really an unrelated usage.
Please apply to an appropriate tree.
