    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
     "Highlights:
    
       - Add a new knfsd file cache, so that we don't have to open and close
         on each (NFSv2/v3) READ or WRITE. This can speed up read and write
         in some cases. It also replaces our readahead cache.
    
       - Prevent silent data loss on write errors, by treating write errors
         like server reboots for the purposes of write caching, thus forcing
         clients to resend their writes.
    
       - Tweak the code that allocates sessions to be more forgiving, so
         that NFSv4.1 mounts are less likely to hang when a server already
         has a lot of clients.
    
       - Eliminate an arbitrary limit on NFSv4 ACL sizes; they should now be
         limited only by the backend filesystem and the maximum RPC size.
    
       - Allow the server to enforce use of the correct kerberos credentials
         when a client reclaims state after a reboot.
    
      And some miscellaneous smaller bugfixes and cleanup"
