For the past couple of days several LTP tests (open_by_handle_at0[12]
and name_to_handle_at01) have been failing on all the arm64 platforms
we're running these tests on.  I ran a bisect which came back to this
commit which is in -next as 80a07849c0b8d8a2e839c8.  I didn't verify a
revert against -next due to conflicts and it being pretty late but I'm a
little suspicous this report is misdrected, the commit doesn't look
obviously relevant but equally I'm totally unfamiliar with this bit of
the code.  

We use a NFS root for our testing.  The last pass was next-20240328 and
while the bisect was run on yesterday's -next things still look bad
today.
