Hi Stephen,
 Thanks for your help in sorting this out.  I have no idea how I missed those
 few nfsservctl references but I clearly did and you and -next have proved
 valuable yet again.

 And really *everything* should spend a few days in linux-next before going
 to Linus.  We all know that but it sometimes seem hard to *do* that ....
 until we have learnt the hard way a couple of times :-(

Thanks,
NeilBrown
