Subject: [PATCH 00/16] NLM clean-ups for IPv6 support

Hi Bruce, Trond -

This patch series prepares the kernel NLM implementation to support IPv6
network addresses. These should not cause any disruption for legacy IPv4
support, and shouldn't depend on the previous 15 patches I just posted.

Please consider these for 2.6.27. I think it would be reasonable for this
work to get some exercise with IPv4 before we finish the IPv6
implementation.

I have about 10 more patches that add NSM support for IPv6 and expose NLM's
IPv6 capability. However, we haven't been able to test these yet because
we don't have an IPv6-capable user space rpc.statd yet. I think they can wait
for 2.6.28.
