There was a big change: Most clients (>100) were upgraded from Debian
11 to Debian 12 within the last couple of months. A big chunk of
about 40 hosts have been upgraded on May 21st. This included the
kernel upgrade to 6.1.xx, and the upgrade of the "nfs-common" package
from version 1.3.4 to 2.6.2.

The current nfs-common package provides these tools:

/sbin/mount.nfs
/sbin/mount.nfs4
/sbin/rpc.statd
/sbin/showmount
/sbin/sm-notify
/sbin/umount.nfs
/sbin/umount.nfs4
/usr/sbin/blkmapd
/usr/sbin/mountstats
/usr/sbin/nfsconf
/usr/sbin/nfsidmap
/usr/sbin/nfsiostat
/usr/sbin/nfsstat
/usr/sbin/rpc.gssd
/usr/sbin/rpc.idmapd
/usr/sbin/rpc.svcgssd
/usr/sbin/rpcctl
/usr/sbin/rpcdebug
/usr/sbin/start-statd

I have 3 clients with more recent kernel versions 5.10.209, 5.10.218
and 6.7.12. The 5.10.x hosts are running Debian 12 and this kernel
for several months, but the host with 6.7.12 is running this kernel
since May 16th.

These "backports" kernels were installed for testing purposes. Would
you recommend to downgrade these kernels to 6.1.90?

As asked before, do you think the problem could be related to running
nfsd inside an LXC container?
