This implements the actual binding, if we are passed
a non-null local_ip structure.
Why not _always_ pass a valid local_ip structure, and simply set .addr to an appropriate ANYADDR by default? Then .is_set wouldn't be necessary, would it? It would also simplify the logic in nfs_validate_options().
I like it as is because almost none of the new code is actually
used unless users pass in the srcaddr= option. So, if I *did*
introduce any bugs, hopefully they would be limited to users
of the new option, and not a real regression.
Maybe after the srcaddr= code is used a bit I could go back and
do that cleanup.
But, I don't feel strongly about it, so if you think it's
worth the bother, I'll try changing the code as you suggest.
Thanks,
Ben
