In [1], Jeff Layton says it looks like a regression introduced by

 3114ea7a24d3 NFSv4: Return the delegation if the server returns
              NFS4ERR_OPENMODE

and suggests a fix.  Does this patch help?

Subject: NFSv4: Minor cleanups for nfs4_handle_exception and 
nfs4_async_handle_error

commit 14977489ffdb80d4caf5a184ba41b23b02fbacd9 upstream.

If I read [1] correctly this patch was pushed in a Fedora update, and results in the following message being spewed at syslog by the thousands (filling the disk):

NFS: nfs4_reclaim_open_state: Lock reclaim failed!

I will try applying the patch to the Debian kernel next week, but I assume it will have the same result. If so, I believe it would be better to revert the bad commit for now, and apply a complete fix later when it becomes available.

Regards,

Rik
