More over,
The patch seems to introduce a delay between two mounts.
During this delay, it is not possible to umount/mount a nfsv4.
Here are the traces I have got doing a long serie of mount/umount :
.............
.............
mount: ns2:/: can't read superblock
umount: /mnt/nfs/: not mounted
mount: ns2:/: can't read superblock
umount: /mnt/nfs/: not mounted
mount: ns2:/: can't read superblock
umount: /mnt/nfs/: not mounted
mount: ns2:/: can't read superblock
