Merge tag 'nfs-for-3.20-1' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs

Pull NFS client updates from Trond Myklebust:
 "Highlights incluse:

  Features:
   - Removing the forced serialisation of open()/close() calls in
     NFSv4.x (x>0) makes for a significant performance improvement in
     metadata intensive workloads.
   - Full support for the pNFS "flexible files" layout type
   - Further RPC/RDMA client improvements from Chuck

  Bugfixes:
   - Stable fix: NFSv4.1 backchannel calls blocking operations with !TASK_RUNNING
   - Stable fix: pnfs_generic_pg_init_read/write can be called with lseg == NULL
   - Stable fix: Fix an Oopsable condition when nsm_mon_unmon is called
     as part of the namespace cleanup,
   - Stable fix: Ensure we reference the inode for return-on-close in
     delegreturn
   - Use SO_REUSEPORT to ensure that NFSv3 TCP connections can rebind to
     the same source address/port combination during a disconnect/
     reconnect event.  This is a requirement imposed by most NFSv3
     server duplicate reply cache implementations.

  Optimisations:
   - Ask for no NFSv4.1 delegations on OPEN if using O_DIRECT

  Other:
   - Add Anna Schumaker as co-maintainer for the NFS client"

layout drivers
--------------
PNFS utilizes what is called layout drivers. The STD defines 3 basic
layout types: "files" "objects" and "blocks". For each of these types
there is a layout-driver with a common function-vectors table which
are called by the nfs-client pnfs-core to implement the different layout
types.
