Subject: sunrpc's tcp_max_slot_table_entries

Hi folks,

There used to be a configurable parameter in sunrpc called
"tcp_max_slot_table_entries" that no longer works (meaning that rpc
slot table is always created with 65536 slots regardless of what the
value is set to). Is the change intentional or a bug? A look thru git
log of xprtsock.c didn't reveal an entry stating of such change.

Thank you.
