Yes, that's also consistent with the explanation that the problem is
client lease expiry.

NFSv4 locks are lease-based--the client loses all its locks if it
doesn't contact the server regularly (by default, about every 90
seconds).  So, if you suspend or lose contact with the server for too
long, then you lose your locks.

NFSv3 (NLM) locks are not.  The client keeps them until it unlocks them
or explicitly tells the server to remove them all (such as if it comes
back up after crashing).  So, there's no risk of losing locks when you
suspend, but there's more of a risk of stuck locks that get in other
client's way when one client dies.

Once we implement "courteous server", locks will only be removed once
the client loses contact for more than 90 seconds *and* either another
client requests a conflicting lock, or  the server just runs out of
memory for client state.  I think that'll be a better compromise.
