The only place I see soft references on vnode is in the NFS
lookup code which duplicates the VFS lookup code (except gets it wrong).
If you are refering to the nqlease code... that looks like a hard
reference to me. I'm not even sure why they bother to check v_id.
The vp reference from an nfsnode is a hard reference.
