This reverts commit d6ebf5088f09472c1136cd506bdc27034a6763f8. I forgot that the kernel's default lease period should never be decreased! After a kernel upgrade, the kernel has no way of knowing on its own what the previous lease time was. Unless userspace tells it otherwise, it will assume the previous lease period was the same. So if we decrease this value in a kernel upgrade, we end up enforcing a grace period that's too short, and clients will fail to reclaim state in time. Symptoms may include EIO and log messages like "NFS: nfs4_reclaim_open_state: Lock reclaim failed!" There was no real justification for the lease period decrease anyway.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
