  To: bhalevy; +Cc: linux-nfs

This is a replacement for the patch I sent 21 July, incorporating feedback
from list members.  Thank you for your comments.

I have tried to settle on "blkmapd" as the name and use it consistently for
the executable, service name, syslog, etc.

I did not change atomicio.c.  That's because this is a copy of the file by
the same name in both idmapd and spnfsd.  There is a patch in the works to
move this to the support library.  I think the right thing to do is move
that patch forward, then fix atomicio.
