I'm a little surprised your patches are working for you without handling delegations. There may be something about your environment that's preventing delegations from being given out. In the NFSv4.0 case they require the server to make a tcp connection back the client, which is easy blocked by firewalls or NAT. Might be worth testing with v4.1 or 4.2. Anyway, so we probably also want to walk the client's dl_perclnt list and look for matching files. --b.
