Currently, our trunking code will check for session trunking, but will fail to detect client id trunking. This is a problem, because it means that the client will fail to recognise that the two connections represent shared state, even if they do not permit a shared session. By removing the check for the server minor id, and only checking the major id, we will end up doing the right thing in both cases: we close down the new nfs_client and fall back to using the existing one.
