Subject: [RHEL5] [PATCH] NFSv4: fs_locations support

A month after RHEL5 was branched from upstream,
patches were submitted and commit to the mainstream
kernel that introduce File System Replication and
Migration support for NFS version 4.

File System Replication and Migration is a feature
in V4 that allows server to tell clients that the
file (or file system) they are asking has just
moved to another server. Such a feature will help
with load balancing and/or resource relocation.

This is something I'm pretty confident our competitors
will have in upcoming releases, so we really need a
way to get this in RHEL5.

Being that its so late in the release cycle, adding
the entire feature may not make sense. So I'm proposing
that we only added the kABI footprint which will allow us
to added the feature in an update release as well as let
the code "bake" a bit longer in upstream.

So the attached patch only has the header file changes.

The entire patch can be found at:
http://people.redhat.com/steved/bz212352/linux-2.6.18-nfs4-fsloc.patch

The upstream patch series can be found in:
