Does NFS has a concept of lease keys and parent lease keys?
In SMB it's possible that the client passes a lease key (16 client chosen bytes) to a directory open,
when asking for a directory lease.
Then operations on files within that directory, take that lease key from the directory as
'parent lease keys' in addition to a unique lease key for the file.
That way a client can avoid breaking its own directory leases when creating/move/delete... files
in the directory.
