still don't see this behavior on 4.13 kernel. I suspect there is
something wrong with dentry lease. please check if your kernel
include:

commit c3f4688a08f (ceph: don't set req->r_locked_dir in ceph_d_revalidate)
commit 5eb9f6040f3 (ceph: do a LOOKUP in d_revalidate instead of GETATTR)

The first commit can cause this issue, the second one fixes it.
