NFSv4.1: Handle EXCHGID4_FLAG_CONFIRMED_R during NFSv4.1 migration
Transparent State Migration copies a client's lease state from the server where a filesystem used to reside to the server where it now resides. When an NFSv4.1 client first contacts that destination server, it uses EXCHANGE_ID to detect trunking relationships. The lease that was copied there is returned to that client, but the destination server sets EXCHGID4_FLAG_CONFIRMED_R when replying to the client. This is because the lease was confirmed on the source server (before it was copied). Normally, when CONFIRMED_R is set, a client purges the lease and creates a new one. However, that throws away the entire benefit of Transparent State Migration. Therefore, the client must not purge that lease when it is possible that Transparent State Migration has occurred.
