Currently there's a race that can cause an oops in generic_setlease.
(In detail: nfsd, when it removes a lease, does so by calling
vfs_setlease() with F_UNLCK and a pointer to the fl_flock field, which
in turn points to nfsd's existing lease; but the first thing the
setlease code does is call time_out_leases(). If the lease happens to
already be beyond the lease break time, that will free the lease and (in
nfsd's release_private callback) set fl_flock to NULL, leading to a NULL
deference soon after in vfs_setlease().)
There are probably other things to fix here too, but it seems inherently
racy to allow either locks.c or nfsd to time out this lease. Instead
just set the fl_break_time to 0 (preventing locks.c from ever timing out
this lock) and leave it up to nfsd's laundromat thread to deal with it.
