Whoops, good catch!  (Since most of the xdr encoding is done before
nfsd4_proc_compound() exits, I think I must have forgotten that
nfs4svc_encode_compoundres() is an exception?)

Done as you suggest.  I'd applied the patch locally but not pushed it
out yet, so I've updated it in place; the result is the following.  I'll
apply and push that to for-2.6.35 if you don't see any further probleme.

    nfsd4: fix unlikely race in session replay case
    
    In the replay case, the
    
    	renew_client(session->se_client);
    
    happens after we've droppped the sessionid_lock, and without holding a
    reference on the session; so there's nothing preventing the session
    being freed before we get here.
    
    Thanks to Benny Halevy for catching a bug in an earlier version of this
    patch.
