Because that is conditional on if (tree) while the variable is then used in a
subsequent switch conditional regardless of tree.

Ah, there was an additional reference added in r48849 which was committed after
you posted your patch. I can fix that myself if necessary.

I think it's just that nfs.stat3 makes more sense than nfs.nfsstat3 or
nfs.nfs.nfsstat3 etc. unless those names make more sense with reference to the
protocol (I don't know a whole lot about NFS internals to be honest). They're
not a big deal, I just thought they might be worth fixing while we're doing
cleanup.
