Currently the client indicates that a dentry is stale when inode numbers or type types between a local inode and a remote file don't match. If this is the case attributes is not being copied from remote to local, so, it is already known that the local copy has stale metadata. That's why the inode needs to be marked for revalidation in order to tell the VFS to lookup the dentry again before openning a file. This prevents unexpected stale errors to be returned to the user space when openning a file.
