Well, when I've looked on i386, the nfsd threads normally don't use 1 page
and the stacks are 2 pages, so I doubt an nfsd thread is blowing the stack.
Also, nfsrvd_releaselckown() doesn't call nfsrvd_setattr(), so the backtrace
doesn't make much sense.

Afraid I can't help more than this. Good luck with it, rick
