This patch defines new switches in fs/Config.in -
CONFIG_NFS_V4: enables nfsv4 client
CONFIG_NFSD_V4: enables nfsv4 server
CONFIG_SUNRPC_GSSD_CLNT: enables in-kernel client for GSSD
[Background: GSSD is a service which runs in userspace, whose
purpose in life (for now) is to provide translation between
strings of the form user@realm, which are used in the NFSv4
protocol, and numerical uid/gid's, which the kernel can
understand. The kernel communicates with GSSD through
loopback RPC calls.]

This should be the last patch after the code got in..

I agree, patch 1/38 should be renumbered to 38/38, and everything else
shifted back by one. If I have to repost the patchset (e.g. after rediff
to 2.5.32), I'll be sure to do this.
In the meantime, patch 1/38 does not conflict with any of the others;
the patches can be applied cleanly in the order
2,3,4,....,38, 1
Maybe we can just consider this to be the patch ordering for purposes of
deciding which to apply to the 2.5.31 tree? This way I won't have to
repost 200K of patches before 2.5.32 comes out...
Thanks,
Kendrick
