:-) always worth double checking...

I've made quite a few changes since that VFS-only patches.  Almost
certainly the problem is not in the nfsd code.

I think that following has a reasonable chance of making things better,
both for the problem you hit and the problem Anna hit.  I haven't tested
it at all yet so no promises - up to you if you try it.

Thanks to both of you for the help with testing.
