I'm going through some Smatch results and had a question.
Until commit 343952fa5a: "nfs41: Get the rpc_xprt * from the rpc_rqst
instead of the rpc_clnt." we assumed that "task->tk_rqstp" can be NULL.
But that patch dereferences it unconditionally.

int xprt_reserve_xprt(struct rpc_task *task)
{
- struct rpc_xprt *xprt = task->tk_xprt;
struct rpc_rqst *req = task->tk_rqstp;
+ struct rpc_xprt *xprt = req->rq_xprt;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Can "req" be null here? The patch is a year old, so presumably it
isn't null very often.
If you would like, I can remove the checks for null from the rest of the
function.
