Change from v1: Use ELOOP rather than EEXIST, and drop the now-redundant comment. 8<------------------------------------------------------------------------- If a server returns itself as a location while migrating, the client may end up getting stuck attempting to migrate twice to the same server. Catch this by checking if the nfs_client found is the same as the existing client. For the other two callers to nfs4_set_client, the nfs_client will always be ERR_PTR(-EINVAL).
