I like this approach. Moving the blocking of new delegations into the
VFS layer makes sense, and we can do better, more targeted blocking of
new leases this way.

I wonder -- do we still need the bloom filter if we do this? We could
keep track of the time of the last recall in i_flctx as well, and then
avoid handing them out until some time has elapsed.

try_break_deleg() (and break_deleg_wait(), for that matter) were
already a bit large for inlines, so moving them to regular functions
sounds like a good idea. Maybe we can even have inline fastpath
wrappers around them that check for i_flctx == NULL and avoid the jmp
in that case?
