Commit 24e36663, which first appeared in 2.6.19, changed lockd so that
the client side starts a UDP listener only if there is a UDP NFSv2/v3
mount. Its description notes:
This... means that lockd will *not* listen on UDP if the only
mounts are TCP mount (and nfsd hasn't started).
The latter is the only one that concerns me at all - I don't know
if this might be a problem with some servers.
Unfortunately it is a problem for Linux itself. The rpc.statd daemon
on Linux uses UDP for contacting the local lockd, no matter which
protocol is used for NFS mounts. Without a local lockd UDP listener,
NFSv2/v3 lock recovery from Linux NFS clients always fails.
Revert parts of commit 24e36663 so lockd_up() always starts both
listeners.
