Linus Torvalds c4a86165d1 NFS client updates for Linux 4.9
Highlights include:
 
 Stable bugfixes:
 - sunrpc: fix writ espace race causing stalls
 - NFS: Fix inode corruption in nfs_prime_dcache()
 - NFSv4: Don't report revoked delegations as valid in
   nfs_have_delegation()

   invalid
 - NFSv4: Open state recovery must account for file permission changes
 - NFSv4.2: Fix a reference leak in nfs42_proc_layoutstats_generic
 
 Features:

 - Add support for pNFS file layout session trunking
 - Delay xprtrdma use of DMA API (for device driver removal)
 - Add support for xprtrdma remote invalidation
 - Add support for larger xprtrdma inline thresholds
 - Use a scatter/gather list for sending xprtrdma RPC calls
 - Add support for the CB_NOTIFY_LOCK callback
 - Improve hashing sunrpc auth_creds by using both uid and gid
 
 Bugfixes:
 - Fix xprtrdma use of DMA API
 - Validate filenames before adding to the dcache
 - Fix corruption of xdr->nwords in xdr_copy_to_scratch
 - Fix setting buffer length in xdr_set_next_buffer()
 - Don't deadlock the state manager on the SEQUENCE status flags
 - Various delegation and stateid related fixes
 - Retry operations if an interrupted slot receives EREMOTEIO
 - Make nfs boot time y2038 safe
