The root cause is described in LU-2904:
nfs defects, it does not work if the "inode::i_ino" is larger than 2^32, which is known issue.

The no_subtree_check option don't change behavior.

# cat /etc/exports
/mnt/lustre/export 192.168.1.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash,no_subtree_check)

On NFS node:

# mount
l201u2:/mnt/lustre/export on /net/l201u2/mnt/lustre/export type nfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,intr,sloppy,vers=4,addr=192.168.1.2,clientaddr=192.168.1.1)
# ls -la /net/l201u2/mnt/lustre
ls: cannot access /net/l201u2/mnt/lustre/export: Stale file handle
total 0
dr-xr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Oct  5 16:02 .
dr-xr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Oct  5 16:02 ..
d????????? ? ?    ?    ?            ? export

On Lustre node I launch llmount.sh and then service nfs start.

# mount
l201u2@tcp:/lustre on /mnt/lustre type lustre (rw,user_xattr,flock)
# cat /etc/exports
/mnt/lustre/export 192.168.1.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

I can't get past the cd. Did you use no_subtree_check in /etc/exports? Can you post the /etc/exports and mount options you used?
