To make it possible run both NFS server and client in containers.
I know, that the NFS client is already a filesystem, but such
things as its internal servers and clients abstraction require
isolation from each other in containers terms.

Sure! The thing is that the full containerization of that stuff is
too many patches and I'm not sure that you and other maintainers wish
to review the 100-patch set in one go ;)

I want to find out what git tree to hack on and prepare small patch
sets making things step-by-step. This one is just the first in a row.
