doing a mod_timer on a live state without holding a lock or for that
matter not even checking whether the state is dead is definitely a bad
idea

    when mounting an NFS filesystem.

RPC: Make "major" timeouts be of fixed length "timeo<<retrans"
     rather than counting the number of retransmissions. The
     clock starts at the first attempt to send each request.
                                                                                
RPC: Ensure that we "slow start" the RTT estimation after a
     major timeout has occurred.

    no longer calls the generic VFS read and write routines.
    This allows all application read requests to pass through
    to the server, instead of just the ones that appear to be
    inside the file. this eliminates the requirement to use a
    GETATTR operation before each read or write to determine
    where the EOF is. This is a significant performance and
    scalability win.

    It also removes all requirements for holding the inode
    semaphore during NFS direct reads and writes, as the read
    and write logic no longer needs atomic access to the size
    of the file. this also helps client CPU scalability by
    reducing the serialization of writes against a single file.

In several functions, d_instantiate is called before the transaction
is committed.  Under the rare condition that txCommit fails, the new
inode is released, but the dentry continues to point to it.  This
can lead to a seg fault.  The fix is to call d_instantiate after
txCommit has run successfully.

The jfs_log structure was never being freed at unmount time.

The NFS readlink() methods all take a buffer length argument.  Use that
instead of assuming PAGE_SIZE... 

We need to return ENAMETOOLONG rather than EIO.

Make sure NFS client doesn't see errors from mode setting on new symlinks.

When nfsd creates a symlink, it tries to set the mode as the mode is 
carried in the NFS request and some filesystems store a mode.

If the filesystem refuses to set the mode (e.g. -EOPNOTSUPP), this
error should not be returned to the client.
