Is the question whether we want to dput() the dentry that
is attached to the fhp ? fh_verify's API contract says:

310  * Regardless of success or failure of fh_verify(), fh_put() should be
311  * called on @fhp when the caller is finished with the filehandle. 

It looks like none of nfsd_file_acquire's callers do an
fh_put() in their error flows.

But maybe I've misunderstood the issue.
