*whoa*
So we have zero entry->fh->size? No wonder it doesn't match... Which NFS
version it is? entry->fh->size is set by nfs[34]_decode_dirent().
NFS folks: any ideas on best way to debug it? The brute-force way would be
to capture all NFS traffic with tcpdump and see what's going on, but that
would be a lot of work...
Looks like we have READDIRPLUS attempted and succeeded, but fhandle was not
given. Result: nfs_prime_dcache() is doing blind d_drop() on perfectly
valid dentries, no matter how busy.
