Subject: [PATCH 4.14 48/74] nfsd4: fix up replay_matches_cache()

From: Scott Mayhew <smayhew@...hat.com>

commit 6e73e92b155c868ff7fce9d108839668caf1d9be upstream.

When running an nfs stress test, I see quite a few cached replies that
don't match up with the actual request.  The first comment in
replay_matches_cache() makes sense, but the code doesn't seem to
match... fix it.

This isn't exactly a bugfix, as the server isn't required to catch every
case of a false retry.  So, we may as well do this, but if this is
fixing a problem then that suggests there's a client bug.
