Well the main purpose of the patch is to stop ment->mnt_opts
from being re-freed during the remount path:

+	/*
+	 * Note: free(ment->mnt_opts) happens in discard_mntentchn()
+	 * via update_mtab() on remounts
+	 */
+	 if (!remount)
+	 	free(ment->mnt_opts);
+}

The second part the patch is basically cleaning
up how the default nfs version is set... preparing
for the day when v4 is the default...

steved.
