I'm not worried about other readdir calls invalidating the page. My
concern is rather about the VM memory reclaimers ejecting the page from
the page cache, and calling nfs_readdir_clear_array while we're
referencing the page.

Wait, if nfs_readdir_clear_array can clear the page while
somebody else has a refcount to it, what good is the
refcount?

Why is your .releasepage modifying the data on the page,
instead of just the metadata in the struct page?
