As you seem in the lucky position to be able to trigger the issue in a
more localized setup, might you:

- try as well more recent kernels from upper suites (6.8.9-1 in
  unstable would be ideal to check if the issue is there as well).
- I did read you cannot trigger with 5.15. If you build 6.1.90 from
  upstream without Debian patches I assume you can trigger the issue
  likewise? If so could you bisect the changes introducing the issue?
  This is a cumbersome process in particular if you need few hours to
  trigger it  So maybe the following point could be done first:
- Can you report the issue to the linux-nfs list, keeping us in the
  loop?

Regards,
Salvatore
