Ben,
Dr. Holder took a look at this and acked it.
This does help the problem of choosing
wired vs. wireless for mounts to specific servers
(where the default route would be wrong as happened
to me last week) and also there are some IPv6
cases it helps with.

If nfs guys require a different name for the mount
option etc. - let me know.

The NFS guys don't seem to see any use at all in
binding to IPs, so I'm not sure they'll ever take
such a patch.

I should have time to test the smb2 patch today
if all goes well...

Thanks,
Ben
