Neil Brown writes via Kernel.org Bugzilla:

I think this bug was fixed in Linux v6.7 by

Commit ca1d36b82394 ("mm: shrinker: make global slab shrink lockless")

The shrinker_rwsem has been replaced by shrinker_mutex and is no longer held while shrinking slabs.  So if nfs4_evict_inode() blocks on a non-responsive server it may block one vmscan thread, but shouldn't cause any blockage outside of that filesystem.

You were using v5.10 which is 4 years old next week.  Please re-test with a newer kernel.

(And I think we *should* consider loop-back NFS to be supported in the sense that we will make a reasonable effort to fix any problems that are reported)
