I recently set up scheduled snapshots on my CephFS filesystem, and ever since 
the cluster has been intermittently going into HEALTH_WARN with an 
MDS_CLIENT_LATE_RELEASE notification.

Specifically:

[WARN] MDS_CLIENT_LATE_RELEASE: 1 clients failing to respond to capability 
release

        mds.[redacted](mds.0): Client [redacted] failing to respond to 
capability release client_id: 806270628


I catch errors like this in the logs:
client.785155718 isn't responding to mclientcaps(revoke), ino 0x10004c1abc6 
pending pAsLsXsFsc issued pAsLsXsFsc, sent 3844.269321 seconds ago

(Ignore the fact that the client numbers don't match in this case; one was 
captured before the client was rebooted, the other after.  There's only one 
CephFS client and the numbers normally match.)

If left alone, the issue eventually resolves itself, then comes back at some 
point in the future.

It appears to be the same as this bug:  https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/49434
Which leads here:  https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/57244
And then this pull request:  https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/47752

My reading is that this is simply a matter of the MDS not recognizing that the 
caps have, in fact, been released, and that I can safely ignore the warnings 
until the patch percolates down to a Pacific release.  Is that right, or am I 
missing something significant?
