Pull NFS client updates from Trond Myklebust:
"Highlights include:
Stable fixes:
- SUNRPC: Ensure bvecs are re-synced when we re-encode the RPC
request
- Fix an Oops in ff_layout_track_ds_error due to a PTR_ERR()
dereference
- Revert buggy NFS readdirplus optimisation
- NFSv4: Handle the special Linux file open access mode
- pnfs: Fix a problem where we gratuitously start doing I/O through
the MDS
Features:
- Allow NFS client to set up multiple TCP connections to the server
using a new 'nconnect=X' mount option. Queue length is used to
balance load.
- Enhance statistics reporting to report on all transports when using
multiple connections.
- Speed up SUNRPC by removing bh-safe spinlocks
- Add a mechanism to allow NFSv4 to request that containers set a
unique per-host identifier for when the hostname is not set.
- Ensure NFSv4 updates the lease_time after a clientid update
Bugfixes and cleanup:
- Fix use-after-free in rpcrdma_post_recvs
- Fix a memory leak when nfs_match_client() is interrupted
- Fix buggy file access checking in NFSv4 open for execute
- disable unsupported client side deduplication
- Fix spurious client disconnections
- Fix occasional RDMA transport deadlock
- Various RDMA cleanups
- Various tracepoint fixes
- Fix the TCP callback channel to guarantee the server can actually
send the number of callback requests that was negotiated at mount
time"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
