Merge tag 'nfsd-4.9' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux
Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
"Some RDMA work and some good bugfixes, and two new features that could
benefit from user testing:
- Anna Schumacker contributed a simple NFSv4.2 COPY implementation.
COPY is already supported on the client side, so a call to
copy_file_range() on a recent client should now result in a
server-side copy that doesn't require all the data to make a round
trip to the client and back.
- Jeff Layton implemented callbacks to notify clients when contended
locks become available, which should reduce latency on workloads
with contended locks"
* tag 'nfsd-4.9' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux:
NFSD: Implement the COPY call
nfsd: handle EUCLEAN
nfsd: only WARN once on unmapped errors
exportfs: be careful to only return expected errors.
nfsd4: setclientid_confirm with unmatched verifier should fail
nfsd: randomize SETCLIENTID reply to help distinguish servers
nfsd: set the MAY_NOTIFY_LOCK flag in OPEN replies
nfs: add a new NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_MAY_NOTIFY_LOCK constant
nfsd: add a LRU list for blocked locks
nfsd: have nfsd4_lock use blocking locks for v4.1+ locks
nfsd: plumb in a CB_NOTIFY_LOCK operation
NFSD: fix corruption in notifier registration
svcrdma: support Remote Invalidation
svcrdma: Server-side support for rpcrdma_connect_private
rpcrdma: RDMA/CM private message data structure
svcrdma: Skip put_page() when send_reply() fails
svcrdma: Tail iovec leaves an orphaned DMA mapping
nfsd: fix dprintk in nfsd4_encode_getdeviceinfo
nfsd: eliminate cb_minorversion field
nfsd: don't set a FL_LAYOUT lease for flexfiles layouts
