a. Neither Solaris nor OnTAP do a CB_RECALL or a CB_GETATTR in this case

b. RFC 8881 Section 18.7.4 states that a server MUST NOT proceed with a
   GETATTR response unless it has done one of those callbacks

So we have two examples of non-compliant server implementations that
don't seem to have consequences for not following that MUST.

It doesn't seem unreasonable to recall in this scenario, but it's
unknown what kind of performance impact that will have.

Can you send an updated version of this patch, rebased on nfsd-next
(which now has the other two applied), plus a patch to add a counter
for this type of conflict?
