I'd check your kernel config for 'options NFSCLIENT', so there is
sysctl vfs.oldnfs.access_cache_timeout instead, and you try to set
non-existing vfs.nfs.access_cache_timeout from /etc/sysctl.conf.
If it is so then all your sysctl vfs.nfs.xxx are named as vfs.oldnfs.xxx,
because the NFS implementation enabled with 'options NFSCLIENT'
considered old, and the NFS impl. enabled with 'options NFSCL' is the default.
My inner voice tells me that you have upgraded from quite old CURRENT
from the point when 'options NFSCLIENT' (old nfs) was default to the point
when 'options NFSCL' (new nfs implementation) became the default,
and you still have 'options NFSCLIENT' in your kernel config.
