Following are a bunch of patches for nfsd-v4 (and a little lockd fix).
They should all wait for after 2.6.12
The last three are probably the most interesting.
The NFSv4 server needs to keep state information about clients in
stable storage. To do this it is given a directory name (via a write
to the NFSd filesystem) and it creates subdirectories (which may later
contain files) inside this directory.
This is implemented in patches 26-28
