Now that it no longer does an RPC ping, lockd always ends up queueing
an RPC task for the GRANT_MSG callback. But, it also requeues the block
for later attempts. Since these are hard RPC tasks, if the client we're
calling back goes unresponsive the GRANT_MSG callbacks can stack up in
the RPC queue.

Fix this by making server-side RPC clients default to soft RPC tasks.
lockd requeues the block anyway, so this should be OK.
