Thanks a lot for the quick response and confirming the problem!

From my limited understanding, b8eee0e90f97 ("lockd: Show pid of lockd
for remote locks")
exists only for fixing lockd in 9d5b86ac13c5 ("fs/locks: Remove
fl_nspid and use fs-specific...").

But I don't see anything wrong in 9d5b86ac13c5 ("fs/locks: Remove
fl_nspid and use fs-specific..."). Could you let me know what's the
problem? Thanks a lot!

If 9d5b86ac13c5 ("fs/locks: Remove fl_nspid and use fs-specific...")
is correct, we
probably don't need to add another fixing patch. Perhaps reverting b8eee0e90f97
("lockd: Show pid of lockd for remote locks") would be the best way then.
