Here it is in a single patch...

[JFFS2] Reinstate NFS exportability
Now that the readdir/lookup deadlock issues have been dealt with, we can
export JFFS2 file systems again.
(For now, you have to specify fsid manually; we should add a method to
the export_ops to handle that too.)

Remove XFS buffered readdir hack
Now that we've moved the readdir hack to the nfsd code, we can
remove the local version from the XFS code.
Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@xxxxxxxxx>
commit b8179eee3e72039c8acc9b8efe807031bba3b931
Author: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu Jul 31 20:29:12 2008 +0100
Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code, introduce FS_LOOKUP_IN_READDIR flag
Some file systems with their own internal locking have problems with the
way that nfsd calls the ->lookup() method from within a filldir function
called from their ->readdir() method. The recursion back into the file
system code can cause deadlock.
XFS has a fairly hackish solution to this which involves doing the
readdir() into a locally-allocated buffer, then going back through it
calling the filldir function afterwards. It's not ideal, but it works.
It's particularly suboptimal because XFS does this for local file
systems too, where it's completely unnecessary.
Copy this hack into the NFS code where it can be used only for NFS
export. Allow file systems which are _not_ prone to this deadlock to
avoid the buffered version by setting FS_LOOKUP_IN_READDIR in their
fs_type flags to indicate that calling lookup() from readdir() is OK.
