Subject: [stable] linux-3.14 nfsd regression

Hi Greg,

I noticed that v3.14 broke my development system which relies on nfsroot
for embedded targets, but soon found Bruce's fix (which has now been in
Linus' tree for a while):

082f31a2169b ("nfsd: revert v2 half of "nfsd: don't return high
mode bits")

The fix did not make it into v3.14.2 (and I didn't find it in your
stable queue), so I thought I'd send a reminder.

Thanks,
Johan

It's part of my huge "patches to apply to stable" queue that I'm slowly
working through. So don't worry, it will make it there soon.

thanks,
