I've just noticed that nfsd tries to silly-delete symlinks.

Server: vanilla 2.2.20 SMP
Client: vanilla 2.4.18 SMP
Mount options: rw,nodev,v2,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,intr,udp,lock

Sometimes I see some .nfs<XXXX> files which are symlinks. How can
symlinks be "in use" and be subject to silly-deletion?

Phil.
