Bug description:
We are observing a massive uptick in metadata requests to an NFSv4.1
(AWS EFS) network drive that is linked to a one or more web servers.
This started happening about a week ago across a number of stacks on
AWS. This issue ended up exhausting all the burst credits we had
accrued and caused a production outage.
Diagnostics...
`nfsiostat` shows 50-600 ops/s on the servers where it is happening.
`nfsstat -m` shows these mount flags: `Flags:
rw,relatime,vers=4.1,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255,hard,noresvport,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,clientaddr=x.x.x.x,fsc,local_lock=none,addr=y.y.y.y`
`nfstrace --mode=live --verbose=2` shows that the same operations are
happening repeatedly on 2-5 filehandles;
```

```
`lsof -N` shows nothing using files from the NFS drive.
Unmounting and remounting the disk stops the issue temporarily
I also enabled rpcdebugging via `rpcdebug -m nfs -s all` and a snippet
of the output is below;

```
This loops repeatedly at a rate roughly consistent with ops/s output
from `nfsiostat`.
I tried rolling back to `5.4.0-1096-aws`, updating grub and rebooting
and the issue no longer occurs. I see the issue again once rolling
forward to `5.4.0-1097-aws`, updating grub and rebooting as soon as
the web server loads anything from the NFS mount.
