I just made some comments on this to the bug:

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7407#c13

...I wonder whether this patch may be too aggressive about disabling
serverino. It seems like we ought to be OK with finding an inode that
is "floating", just not one that has a dentry already attached.
Thoughts?
