    Another practical option would be to create a copy of these functions in
    the server's SSC code. At least nfs_sb_deactive() is not large.
    
    Not clear if nfs42_ssc_open/close are even used on the client. Maybe they
    could be moved to the server?

Nfs42_ssc_open/close are not used on the client but their insides use client's structures (like nfs_fh, nfs4_stateid, etc) and calls nfs4_proc_getattr, nfs_fhget and others and VFS functions. It'll be a lot to copy.
