Merge git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/nfs-2.6
* git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/nfs-2.6: (87 commits) NFSv4: Disallow 'mount -t nfs4 -overs=2' and 'mount -t nfs4 -overs=3' NFS: Allow the "nfs" file system type to support NFSv4 NFS: Move details of nfs4_get_sb() to a helper NFS: Refactor NFSv4 text-based mount option validation NFS: Mount option parser should detect missing "port=" NFS: out of date comment regarding O_EXCL above nfs3_proc_create() NFS: Handle a zero-length auth flavor list SUNRPC: Ensure that sunrpc gets initialised before nfs, lockd, etc... nfs: fix compile error in rpc_pipefs.h nfs: Remove reference to generic_osync_inode from a comment SUNRPC: cache must take a reference to the cache detail's module on open() NFS: Use the DNS resolver in the mount code. NFS: Add a dns resolver for use with NFSv4 referrals and migration SUNRPC: Fix a typo in cache_pipefs_files nfs: nfs4xdr: optimize low level decoding nfs: nfs4xdr: get rid of READ_BUF nfs: nfs4xdr: simplify decode_exchange_id by reusing decode_opaque_inline nfs: nfs4xdr: get rid of COPYMEM nfs: nfs4xdr: introduce decode_sessionid helper nfs: nfs4xdr: introduce decode_verifier helper ...
