Direct backport of 2.4 fix that didn't get propagated to 2.6; original
comment follows:
<quote>
   When I specify the NFS port for nfsroot (e.g.,
   nfsroot=<dir>,port=2049), the
   kernel uses the wrong port. In my case it tries to use 264 (0x108)
   instead
   of 2049 (0x801).

   This patch adds the missing htons().

It would be helpful if the kernel did not silently stop parsing
nfs options, but instead warned about any he does not recognize. The
attached patch adds one printk to do just that.

It took me a couple of hours to find my configuration mistake.

 Most NFS server implementations allow up to 64KB reads and writes on the
 wire.  The Solaris NFS server allows up to a megabyte, for instance.

 Now the Linux NFS client supports transfer sizes up to 1MB, too.  This will
 help reduce protocol and context switch overhead on read/write intensive NFS
 workloads, and support larger atomic read and write operations on servers
 that support them.

 Test-plan:
 Connectathon and iozone on mount point with wsize=rsize>32768 over TCP.
 Tests with NFS over UDP to verify the maximum RPC payload size cap.

 This adds acl support fo nfs clients via the NFSACL protocol extension, by
 implementing the getxattr, listxattr, setxattr, and removexattr iops for the
 system.posix_acl_access and system.posix_acl_default attributes.  This patch
 implements a dumb version that uses no caching (and thus adds some overhead).
 (Another patch in this patchset adds caching as well.)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
