Btw, it seems like the code to generate the file handle if it's missing
should be moved out of nfsd4_encode_fattr and into
nfsd4_encode_dirent_fattr or a small helper just called from there so that:

 a) the code flow is more obvious
 b) the calling conventions for nfsd4_encode_fattr are sensible
 c) nfsd4_encode_fattr shrinks at least a tiny bit
 d) the required cleanup becomes more obvious by being paired with the
    allocation and initialization of the FH.

Just curious: which client asks for the FH or FSID in READDIRPLUS?
