Thanks to Frank Van Maarseveen for the original problem report: "A privileged process on an NFS client which drops privileges after using them to change the current working directory, will experience incorrect EACCES after an NFS server reboot. This problem can also occur after memory pressure on the server, particularly when the client side is quiet for some time." This occurs because the filehandle points to a directory whose parents are no longer in the dentry cache, and we're attempting to reconnect the directory to its parents without adequate permissions to perform lookups in the parent directories. We can therefore fix the problem by acquiring the necessary capabilities before attempting the reconnection. We do this only in the no_subtree_check case, since the documented behavior of the subtree_check export option requires the server to check that the user has lookup permissions on all parents. The subtree_check case still has a problem, since reconnect_path() unnecessarily requires both read and lookup permissions on all parent directories. However, a fix in that case would be more delicate, and use of subtree_check is already discouraged for other reasons.
