[patch 1/1] uml: add nfsd syscall when nfsd is modular

[patch 1/1] uml: add nfsd syscall when nfsd is modular

[blaisorblade]

CC: <stable@kernel.org>

This trick is useless, because sys_ni.c will handle this problem by itself,
like it does even on UML for other syscalls.
Also, it does not provide the NFSD syscall when NFSD is compiled as a module,
which is a big problem.

This should be merged currently in both 2.6.11-stable and the current tree.

Thanks, queued to -stable.
