What is the motivation for this?
I don't necessarily disagree, but I'm curious as to what you hope to
gain.
Just to eliminate v2 support once and for all...
It is a dead version, IMHO, so I'm just trying
to clean things up by remove it from the man pages
and error out (on the client), if a v2 mount is tried...
We are coming out with a major fairly soon, so
I'm just trying make it clear v2 is no longer
an option... So I wanted to more eyes on what
we are thinking of doing.

On server side the support has been off, by default,
since 2013 (6b4e4965a6b). With this server patch the
ability to enable v2 will be remove.
Currently even with CONFIG_NFS_V2 not set
v2 mounts are still tied (over-the-wire). I looked at creating
a kernel parameter module so support could re-enabled
but that got ugly quick.
So I just decided to make all V2 mounts fail with
EOPNOTSUPP, with no way of turn them back on.
