This was part of a series where the last few patches got dropped for other problems.  Testing with this patch by itself was never done since it was part of a series of patches that implement a particular feature.

One thought is to put the authentication flavor name back into nfs_client_id4.id string temporarily until we have worked through the issues with full UCS support.  That would prevent the regression, but we'd still have clients who use multiple authentication flavors maintaining multiple leases.

I don't think the second _lacks_ a level of security: I think the second is using a _different_ security flavor with the same nfs_client_id4.id string.  NFS4ERR_CLID_INUSE is the correct server response in this case.
