[PATCH 0/4] NFS private namespace patchset

[Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>]

The following series is a resend of a set of patches that were originally
targetted for inclusion in 2.6.30-rc1. They build upon Al Viro's "Cache
root in nameidata" patches, and add the ability to create a private
mount namespace that is not visible to user processes.

As stated before, the goal is to allow reuse of vfs_path_lookup() in
order to allow the nfs client to walk down NFSv4 mount paths, and locate
the directory that needs to be mounted.

Cheers
  Trond
