A side note: It seems the hung case is always with dd(1). I have beven
caught tests using quota.c undergoing the same failure.

The only tests that do NFS mount + dd(1) are:

tests/basic/ec/nfs.t
tests/basic/mount-nfs-auth.t
tests/bugs/glusterfs/bug-872923.t
tests/bugs/quota/bug-1153964.t

Perhaps it is time to add options to quota.c and use it everywhere? It
would be interesting to understand what makes dd(1) hang while quota.c
is fine, though.
