No. I think what we should be doing here is

1) if (nfs4_stateid_match_other(arg_stateid, &state->open_stateid) then
just ignore the result and return immediately, because it applies to a
completely different stateid.

2) if (nfs4_stateid_match_other(stateid, &state->open_stateid)
&& !nfs4_stateid_is_newer(stateid, &state->open_stateid))) then resync,
because this was likely an OPEN_DOWNGRADE that has raced with one or
more OPEN calls.

Note that the reason why we've been careful about this previously is
because RFC3530 did not enforce the "seqid:other" definition of
stateids. Now that RFC7530 section 9.1.4.2 has strengthened the
definition of stateids for NFSv4.0, we can assume the above holds for
all existing minor versions of NFSv4.��.n��������+%������w��{.n�����{��w���jg��������ݢj����G�������j:+v���w�m������w�������h�����٥
