    > Hi Trond,
    >
    > We found that a machine which made moderately heavy use of
    > 'automount' was leaking some nfs data structures - particularly the
    > 4K allocated by rpc_alloc_iostats.
    > It turns out that this only happens with filesystems with -onolock
    > set.

    > The problem is that if NFS_MOUNT_NONLM is set, nfs_start_lockd doesn't
    > set server->destroy, so when the filesystem is unmounted, the
    > ->client_acl is not shutdown, and so several resources are still
    > held.  Multiple mount/umount cycles will slowly eat away memory
    > several pages at a time.
