Yeah, I think that might be best. It looks like things could change
after you drop the spinlock with the patch above. Since we have to
retake it anyway in nfs4_get_vfs_file, we can just do it there.

I think we'd be better off taking the st_rwsem for write (maybe just
turning it into a mutex). That would at least be per-stateid instead of
per-inode. That's a fine fix for now.

It might slow down a client slightly that is sending two stateid
morphing operations in parallel, but they shouldn't affect each other.
I'm liking that solution more and more here.
Longer term, I think we need to further simplify OPEN handling. It has
gotten better, but it's still really hard to follow currently (and is
obviously error-prone).
