I sent the first patch in this series the other day, but didn't get any
responses.

We'll have to work out who will take which patches in this set.
Once fully reviewed, I can take the set if the client maintainers
send Acks for 2-4 and 6-7.

nfsd-next for v6.4 is not yet open. I can work on setting that up
today.

Since then I've had time to follow up on the client-side part
of this problem, which eventually also pointed out yet another bug on
the server side. There are also a couple of cleanup patches in here too,
and a patch to add some tracepoints that I found useful while diagnosing
this.

With this set on both client and server, I'm now able to run Yongcheng's
test for an hour straight with no stuck locks.

My nfstest_lock test occasionally gets into an endless wait loop for the lock in
one of the optests.

AFAIK, this started happening after I upgraded my client machine to v5.15.88.
Does this seem related to the client bug fixes in this patch set?

If so, is this bug a regression? and why are the fixes aimed for v6.4?

Thanks,
Amir.
