Nonstandard compound limitations:
* No support for a sessions fore channel RPC compound that requires both a

fail to live up to the promise we made in CREATE_SESSION fore channel
negotiation.

New super_block field "struct export_operations *s_export_op" for
explicit support for exporting, e.g. via NFS. The structure is fully

Documentation/filesystems/Exporting.

Briefly it allows for the definition of decode_fh and encode_fh operations
to encode and decode filehandles, and allows the filesystem to use
