If we skip lookup revalidataion while holding a delegation, we might miss that the file has changed directories on the server. This can happen if the file is moved in between the client caching a dentry and obtaining a delegation. That can be reproduced on a single system with this bash: mkdir -p /exports/dir{1,2} exportfs -o rw localhost:/exports mount -t nfs -ov4.1,noac localhost:/exports /mnt/localhost touch /exports/dir1/fubar cat /mnt/localhost/dir1/fubar mv /mnt/localhost/dir{1,2}/fubar mv /exports/dir{2,1}/fubar cat /mnt/localhost/dir1/fubar mv /mnt/localhost/dir{1,2}/fubar In this example, the final `mv` will stat source and destination and find they are the same dentry. To fix this without giving up the increased lookup performance that holding a delegation provides, let's revalidate the dentry only once after obtaining a delegation by placing a magic value in the dentry's verifier.
