NFSv4 uses leases to offer clients better caching.  Unfortunately that
doesn't work well on a cluster filesystem, since leases are acquired
only locally.

So, add the following patches add new lease and break methods, and a
simple lease implementation for GFS2 that just refuses to grant any
leases for now.

Opinions?
