What would cause the port to be connected to a socket again? I copied a
large file to the nfs mount, and the hidden port is still there?

Remember, this wasn't always the case, the hidden port is a recent
issue.

I ran wireshark on this and it appears to create two ports for NFS. One
of them is canceled by the client (sends a FIN/ACK) and this port is
what lays around never to be used again, and uses the other port for
all connections after that.

When I unmount the NFS directory, the port is finally freed (but has no
socket attached to it). What is the purpose of keeping this port around?

I can reproduce this by having the client unmount and remount the
directory.
