NFSv4 uses leases to guarantee that clients can cache metadata as well
as data.

* caller should drop the i_mutex before doing so.
*
* Alternatively, a caller may pass NULL for delegated_inode. This may
* be appropriate for callers that expect the underlying filesystem not

* the file open for write, as there can be no conflicting delegation in
