It's likely you're a victim of a kernel backport that removed a dentry
invalidation mechanism for FUSE mounts. The result is that ceph-fuse
can't trim dentries. We have a patch to turn off that particular
mechanism by default:

https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/17925

I suggest setting that config manually to false on all of your clients
and ensure each client can remount itself to trim dentries (i.e. it's
being run as root or with sufficient capabiltities) which is a
fallback mechanism.
