Subject: [PATCH] NFSv4: Fix a race in the net namespace mount notification
Since the struct nfs_client gets added to the global nfs_client_list
before it is initialised, it is possible that rpc_pipefs_event can
end up trying to create idmapper entries for such a thing.
The solution is to have the mount notification wait for the
nfs_client initialisation to complete.
