[PATCH 2/2] exportfs: fix 32-bit nfsd handling of 64-bit inode numbers

["J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@redhat.com>]

From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@redhat.com>

Symptoms were spurious -ENOENTs on stat of an NFS filesystem from a
32-bit NFS server exporting a very large XFS filesystem, when the
server's cache is cold (so the inodes in question are not in cache).
