I don't think so. The (updated) specs are pretty clear that the stateid
in a CLOSE response is not to be trusted in any way. I think we're
better off just relying on the stateid that was sent in the request.
On a related note, we probably need to fix knfsd not to send anything
in there as well, but we probably need to think about older clients
there as well.
Thanks for testing the patch. I'm not too surprised this didn't help
here though. It didn't really change the logic appreciably, unless you
have a server sending weird stateids in the CLOSE response.
