understanding the need for 2 SETCLIENTIDs on the client

Hi folks,

I'd like to understand the need for doing a double SETCLIENTID by the
client. Initial mount calls nfs4_init_client() which initiates
trunking discovery and calls nfs40_discover_client_trunking() which
ends up sending the SETCLIENTID to the server. However, then on the
first open, the client calls _nfs4_do_open() which calls
nfs4_client_recover_expired_lease() which checks the flags and finds
NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED set which triggers another SETCLIENTID.

Client is created in nfs4_alloc_client() with cl_flags having
NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED. But why doesn't a successful SETCLIENTID clear
the LEASE_EXPIRED?

If we were to clear the LEASE_EXPIRED flag (which seems like the right
thing after establishing a valid clientid), then open would find a
non-expired state.

Thoughts?
