In the normal case, when we excute `echo 0 > /proc/fs/nfsd/threads`, the
function `nfs4_state_destroy_net` in `nfs4_state_shutdown_net` will
release all resources related to the hashed `nfs4_client`. If the
`nfsd_client_shrinker` is running concurrently, the `expire_client`
function will first unhash this client and then destroy it. This can
lead to the following warning. Additionally, numerous use-after-free
errors may occur as well.

To resolve this issue, cancel `nfsd_shrinker_work` using synchronous
mode in nfs4_state_shutdown_net.

Fixes: 7746b32f467b ("NFSD: add shrinker to reap courtesy clients on low memory condition")
I think like:

Fixes: 7c24fa225081 ("NFSD: replace delayed_work with work_struct for nfsd_client_shrinker")

a little better.

I'm very curious how you stumbled across this one!
