nfs40_discover_server_trunking
	nfs4_proc_setclientid # the first time
	
after nfs4_schedule_state_manager, the state manager:
nfs4_run_state_manager
   nfs4_state_manager
     # 'nfs4_alloc_client' init state to NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED
     nfs4_reclaim_lease
       nfs4_establish_lease
         nfs4_init_clientid
           nfs4_proc_setclientid # the second time.

when 'nfs4_alloc_client', the client state initialized with 'NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED',
So, we should recover it when the client init.

After the first setclientid, maybe we should clear the 'NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED', then
the state manager won't be called it again.
