In the meantime is there anything I can do manually to decrease the number of caps hold by the backup nodes, like flushing the client cache or something like that? Is it possible to mount cephfs without caching on specific mounts?

You can try dropping the cache on the clients
(/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches). Don't do all of them at once. This might
hang your MDS and cause it to be replaced by the monitors. This is one
of the reasons the changes were made. I'm not really sure how quickly
the MDS will chew through 5M cap releases.
