NFSD uses path_lookup, which changed from a static inline into a
kernel internal function.
The new path_lookup is not exported to modules, making at least
NFSD break when compiled as a modules.
The attached patch exports the new function to modules.
I'll leave up to Al to decide if this must be a _GPL only export...
