[PATCH 1/1] NFSv4 do not send an empty SETATTR compound

[PATCH 1/1] NFSv4 do not send an empty SETATTR compound

[andros]

From: Andy Adamson <andros@netapp.com>

Commit 536e43d12b9517bbbf6114cd1a12be27857a4d7a ATTR_OPEN check can result in
an ia_valid with only ATTR_FILE set, and no NFS_VALID_ATTRS attributes to
request from the server.
