Thanks for testing. As Trond pointed out, the correct way to indicate multiple hostnames is on the mount command line

mount -o minorversion=1 host1,host2,…,hostn:/<export>  /<mntdir>

I have a new patch set that is working and that I am testing and cleaning up that adds multiple hostname support to mount.nfs for NFSv4.1, and that kicks off an EXCHANGE_ID for each multi-host address. If the EXCHANGE_ID succeeds, a BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION is also called.
