Sorry, I think I sent you a version with an earlier description. Here's

[PATCH] nfsd: bump dl_time when unhashing delegation

There's a potential race between a lease break and DELEGRETURN call.

Suppose a lease break comes in and queues the workqueue job for a
delegation, but it doesn't run just yet. Then, a DELEGRETURN comes in
finds the delegation and calls destroy_delegation on it to unhash it and
put its primary reference.

Next, the workqueue job runs and queues the delegation back onto the
del_recall_lru list, issues the CB_RECALL and puts the final reference.
With that, the final reference to the delegation is put, but it's still
on the LRU list.

When we go to unhash a delegation, it's because we intend to get rid of
it soon afterward, so we don't want lease breaks to mess with it once
that occurs. Fix this by bumping the dl_time whenever we unhash a
delegation, to ensure that lease breaks don't monkey with it.

I believe this is a regression due to commit 02e1215f9f7 (nfsd: Avoid
taking state_lock while holding inode lock in nfsd_break_one_deleg).
Prior to that, the state_lock was held in the lm_break callback itself,
and that would have prevented this race.
