sm-notify's early ending of the grace period when it has no hosts to notify can cause problems in some high availability configurations, which may be running one sm-notify per floating IP address in the cluster. This commit makes that behavior configurable via the nfs.conf (I don't think having a corresponding command line option would be particularly useful, hence none was added).
