This is a tweak of the patch set Alice Mitchell posted last July [1].
It enables the setting of the nfs4_unique_id kernel module 
parameter from /etc/nfs.conf. 

Things I tweaked:

    * Introduce a new [kernel] section in nfs.conf which only
      contains the nfs4_unique_id setting... For now... 

    * nfs4_unique_id can be set to two different values
    
        - nfs4_unique_id = ${machine-id} will use /etc/machine-id
            as the unique id.
        - nfs4_unique_id = ${hostname} will use the system's hostname
            as the unique id.

    * The new nfs-config systemd service need to be enabled for the
      /etc/modprobe.d/nfs.conf file to be created with 
      the "options nfs nfs4_unique_id=" set. 
  
I see this patch set is not a way to set the nfs4_unique_id 
module parameter... I see it as a beginning of a way to set 
all module parameters from /etc/nfs.conf, which I think
is a good thing...
