Yeah, as Jim pointed out checkpatch will complain if it's not -- you already found my updated diff.

I testsed this patch along with the corresponding mountd patch using two servers:

[fc00::10] - exporting /export, /export/refer @ [fc00:41]:/export
[fc00::41] - exporting /export

On a client machine (with recently posted client-side fix), I mount [fc00::10]:/export on /mnt, then cd to /mnt/refer.

Without these patches, wireshark sees a list of referral locations: "[fc00", "", "10]", which is obviously wrong.
With these patches the cd to /mnt/refer works as [fc00::41]:/export is mounted at /mnt/refer.
