There are two cases that passing the flags to nfsd, 
1, exportfs checks the export entry, only NFSEXP_FSID without this patch,
2, mountd pass the validate export entry, all validate export flags.

When the new nfs-utils against old kernels,
user specifies an unsupported flags(Not NFSEXP_FSID),
exportfs doesn't warning that unsupported flags (without test),
mountd doesn't get the export entry for the flags.

If exportfs warning the unsupported flags, user can modify it and
do the right export.
Do I have an exact understanding?
