I mean it introduces utterly unnecessary complications that may return to bite us in the arse at a future time. Remember how we once said that it would never make sense for child clones to call the portmapper, and so we added the BUG_ON() in rpcb_getport_async; well guess what, we currently have a bug to fix... One pretty obvious fix is to simply move the release method so that it doesn't occur when you release a child. The disadvantage is that a child may then not change its program to one that requires a release method (do we need that?). Another fix would be to add a refcount to the rpc_program structure...
