NFSv4's server reboot recovery isn't really working yet--a Linux client
should be able to survive a non-Linux server reboot, but if a Linux
server reboots the clients its client will probably be lost.  The
missing piece is some code to store state about connected clients in
stable storage, which we're working on right now.
