You're correct; yes the daemon could easily be changed to drop resources when
there's no locking activity.  We'd just set a poll timeout when
plock_resources is non-empty and call drop_resources() if it times out.

(If you simply want to work around this, you can write a little program to
lock a file on the fs to trigger the drop.)
