If a filesystem does not set sb->s_export_op, then it does not support filehandles and export_fs_encode_fh() and exportfs_encode_inode_fh() should not be called. They will use export_encode_fh() is which is a default that uses inode number generation number, but in general they may not be stable. So change exportfs_encode_inode_fh() to return FILEID_INVALID if called on an unsupported Filesystem. Currently only notify/fdinfo can do that. Also remove the WARNing from fdinfo when exportfs_encode_inode_fh() returns FILEID_INVALID, as that is no an erroneous condition.
