We had a report of this:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at fs/nfsd/filecache.c:440
...with a stack trace showing nfsd_file_put being called from
nfs4_show_open. This code has always tried to call fput while holding a
spinlock, but we recently changed this to use the filecache, and that
started triggering the might_sleep() in nfsd_file_put.
states_start takes and holds the cl_lock while iterating over the
client's states, and we can't sleep with that held.
Have the various nfs4_show_* functions instead hold the fi_lock instead
of taking a nfsd_file reference.
Fixes: 78599c42ae ("nfsd4: add file to display list of client's opens")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
