While I agree we don’t want to crash on unexpected input from the
network, if we are tossing out a map we need to shut down the mount as
well. If we think the system metadata is invalid, that’s not really a
recoverable condition and continuing to do IO is a mistake from the
whole-system perspective — either the server has failed horribly or
there’s something the client doesn’t understand which may be critical
to correctness; either way there's a big problem with the basic system
operation. (I mean, if we hit this point obviously the server has
failed horribly since we should have gated it, but it may have failed
horribly in some non-code-logic fashion.)
