Can you please provide a specific test case? Neither downing the interface used for NFS nor stopping the NFS server causes init.d/halt to hang. Blindly ignoring NFS mounts in init.d/halt can actually prevent other local filesystems from unmounting, so I'd like to be sure the change actually fixes something before potentially breaking other setups. QE will also need a test case to ensure the bug is indeed fixed.
