    Revert "vnode: Rework vput() to avoid holding the vnode lock after decrementing"
    
    The change can introduce a deadlock if we release the vnode lock in
    order to release a reference, and then end up releasing the final
    reference after all, requiring a relock of the vnode.  This relock may
    violate the usual parent->child vnode lock order.
    
    This reverts commit 99cb3dca4773fe4a16c500f9cb55fcd62cd8d7f3.
