[PATCH 0/7] Assorted nfsd patches for 2.6.37

[NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>]

Hi Bruce

 Thanks for pushing your latest tree out.  I wouldn't normally be so
 impatient, but i seem to be in the mood to work on nfsd at the moment
 and I don't want to waste the opportunity.

 Following are some patches you might like to consider.  They have
 only been lightly tested (if at all), and the "allow thread
 manager..." one particularly needs "is this even a good idea"-type
 review.

 First two fix clear bugs - one introduced by me, one by you :-)
 Then some (arguable) improvements to the cache deferral stuff (one of
 which is a resend).
 Then deprecation of the legacy syscall interface. :-)

Thanks,
NeilBrown
