> Other functions using the nfs4_exception structure have the exception handling in a single function, and then call something like _nfs4_proc_llseek() to set up the RPC call.  Is there a reason you're not doing it that way here?

I made a first pass at it that way, but because the response's offset needs
to be passed back to vfs_setpos, it meant passing in the nfs42_seek_res * to
_nfs4_proc_llseek(), or passing it back via the retun, or other fiddling.
It ended up being much smaller and simpler to do it this way.

Let me know and I'll send it with _nfs4_proc_llseek() instead if you'd like.
