Hi Trond,

the server's load seems to be a little bit lower with 2.6.27.6 plus
your patch, but OProfile still gives me 45% in
rpcauth_lookup_credcache().  See:

1060627  45.1474  (no location information)   rpcauth_lookup_credcache
289362   12.3172  auth_generic.c:0            generic_match
31886     1.3573  page_alloc.c:0              get_page_from_freelist
23932     1.0187  (no location information)   page_fault
