NFS 2.4.0-11 noisy messages/NFS rpc.lockd returns error

[Jeff V. Merkey]

doing a mount <address>:/dir /mount_point generates the following noisy
error messages:

kmem_create: Forcing size word alignment - nfs-fh

also, the rpc.lockd program is reporting an error when invoked from the
System V init startup scripts:

lockd: lockdsvc: invalid argument 

during system initialization with init 2.78.  

The radio-miropcm20.o driver reports 3 unresolved externals (apm_
functions) and fails with depmod errors during init.

lockd is a kernel thread nowadays, remove it from your nfsd start script
or simply ignore the error (if you want compatibility with 2.2 kernels
before 2.2.18).

Thanks.  I saw [lockd] running from ps -ax along with [rpciod] --
performance was also significantly faster.  2.2 compatibility is a
problem, but not a serious one.  I am updating initscripts.rpm.  More
stuff in the kernel is always better.
