The crux of the issue seems to be the use of privileged ports, which are
(and should be) blocked by network ACL in our environment:

The functional server instance is using a non-privileged port 56242:
tcp 0 0 10.99.19.46:56242 10.99.16.151:2049 ESTABLISHED

The non-functional server is trying to use a privileged port 978:
116     27.617188       10.99.19.43     10.99.16.151    TCP     76      978 → 
2049 [SYN] Seq=0 Win=62727 Len=0 MSS=8961 SACK_PERM=1 TSval=906311050 TSecr=0 
WS=128

As a result, the non-working server is unable to establish a connection with 
EFS to mount. 
This behaviour happens with this kernel version 
(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-aws/5.4.0-1057.60 only so far): 

It appears that this kernel ignores the "noresvport" mount option.
