Merge branch 'for-3.8' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux

Pull nfsd update from Bruce Fields:
 "Included this time:

   - more nfsd containerization work from Stanislav Kinsbursky: we're
     not quite there yet, but should be by 3.9.

   - NFSv4.1 progress: implementation of basic backchannel security
     negotiation and the mandatory BACKCHANNEL_CTL operation.  See

       http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues

     for remaining TODO's

   - Fixes for some bugs that could be triggered by unusual compounds.
     Our xdr code wasn't designed with v4 compounds in mind, and it
     shows.  A more thorough rewrite is still a todo.

   - If you've ever seen "RPC: multiple fragments per record not
     supported" logged while using some sort of odd userland NFS client,
     that should now be fixed.

   - Further work from Jeff Layton on our mechanism for storing
     information about NFSv4 clients across reboots.

   - Further work from Bryan Schumaker on his fault-injection mechanism
     (which allows us to discard selective NFSv4 state, to excercise
     rarely-taken recovery code paths in the client.)

   - The usual mix of miscellaneous bugs and cleanup.

  Thanks to everyone who tested or contributed this cycle."

 	  from a linux client are possible, but we aren't really
 	  conformant with the spec (for example, we don't use kerberos
 	  on the backchannel correctly).
-	- Incomplete backchannel support: incomplete backchannel gss
-	  support and no support for BACKCHANNEL_CTL mean that
-	  callbacks (hence delegations and layouts) may not be
-	  available and clients confused by the incomplete
-	  implementation may fail.
 	- We do not support SSV, which provides security for shared
 	  client-server state (thus preventing unauthorized tampering
 	  with locks and opens, for example).  It is mandatory for
 	  servers to support this, though no clients use it yet.
-	- Mandatory operations which we do not support, such as
-	  DESTROY_CLIENTID, are not currently used by clients, but will be
-	  (and the spec recommends their uses in common cases), and
-	  clients should not be expected to know how to recover from the
-	  case where they are not supported.  This will eventually cause
-	  interoperability failures.
 
 In addition, some limitations are inherited from the current NFSv4
 implementation:
