not to reclaim unused state owners during state recovery. This change has benefits for the client as well. For some workloads, this approach drops the number of OPEN_CONFIRM calls from the same as the number of OPEN calls, down to just one. This reduces wire traffic and thus open(2) latency. Before this patch, untarring a kernel source tarball shows the OPEN_CONFIRM call counter steadily increasing through the test. With the patch, the OPEN_CONFIRM count remains at 1 throughout the entire untar. As long as the expiry time is kept short, I don't think garbage collection should be terribly expensive, although it does bounce the clp->cl_lock around a bit.
