rpc.nfsd insists on adding "-4.2" when writing /proc/fs/nfsd/versions :
  rpc.nfsd: Writing version string to kernel: +4.1 -4.2 -2 +3 +4
Which causes Linux to return an EIVAL error as 3.10 has no support for 4.2 
and
does not accept any reference to 4.2

It seems reasonable to me that Linux should accpect -4.2 as a noop and 
continue
processing the rest of the options but I am just guessing.
Anyhow, just to test I applied this commit to my 3.10.24 kernel:
   
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=4bdc33ed5bd9fbaa243bda6fdccb22674aed6305
and now it accepts the "-4.2" but I have no idea if this messes up 
something else.
Ideas?
