Guest vm doesn't recover after the nfs connection resume

[Liang Cong]

Dear developers：

I found one issue during regular test and I could not confirm whether it is
a libvirt|qemu issue or it is a nfs client issue or it is not an issue, so
could you help to check it?
Below is the issue reproduce steps:

1.there is a nfs server with exports file like:
/nfs *(async,rw,no_root_squash)
2. host machine soft mount nfs:
mount nfs_server_ip:/nfs /var/lib/libvirt/images/nfs -o v4,soft
3. start a guest vm with disk tag xml like below:
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/>
<source
file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/nfs/RHEL-8.6.0-20211102.1-x86_64.qcow2'
index='1'/>
<backingStore/>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
<alias name='virtio-disk0'/>
</disk>
4.Start the vm and during the guest vm boot, apply the iptables rule to
drop the nfs connection to nfs server
iptables -A OUTPUT -d nfs_server_ip -p tcp --dport 2049 -j DROP
5. Wait until the error log appear in /var/log/message
kernel: nfs: server nfs_server_ip not responding, timed out
6. delete the iptables rule to retain the connection to nfs server
iptables -D OUTPUT -d nfs_server_ip -p tcp --dport 2049 -j DROP
7. check the guest vm, found the boot process with error and can not
recover.
rror: ../../grub-core/disk/i386/pc/biosdisk.c:546:failure reading sector

0x7ab8 from `hd0'.

error: ../../grub-core/disk/i386/pc/biosdisk.c:546:failure reading sector

0x9190 from `hd0'.

error: ../../grub-core/disk/i386/pc/biosdisk.c:546:failure reading sector
8. found there is error message in /var/log/message
kernel: NFS: __nfs4_reclaim_open_state: Lock reclaim failed!

Thanks
