Merge branch 'for-3.14' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux

Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
 - Handle some loose ends from the vfs read delegation support.
   (For example nfsd can stop breaking leases on its own in a
    fewer places where it can now depend on the vfs to.)
 - Make life a little easier for NFSv4-only configurations
   (thanks to Kinglong Mee).
 - Fix some gss-proxy problems (thanks Jeff Layton).
 - miscellaneous bug fixes and cleanup

The current implementation is intended for developers only: while it
does support ordinary file operations on clients we have tested against
(including the linux client), it is incomplete in ways which may limit
features unexpectedly, cause known bugs in rare cases, or cause
interoperability problems with future clients. Known issues:
- gss support is questionable: currently mounts with kerberos
from a linux client are possible, but we aren't really
conformant with the spec (for example, we don't use kerberos
on the backchannel correctly).
- We do not support SSV, which provides security for shared
client-server state (thus preventing unauthorized tampering
with locks and opens, for example). It is mandatory for
servers to support this, though no clients use it yet.
In addition, some limitations are inherited from the current NFSv4
implementation:
- Incomplete delegation enforcement: if a file is renamed or
unlinked by a local process, a client holding a delegation may
continue to indefinitely allow opens of the file under the old
name.
The table below, taken from the NFSv4.1 document, lists
the operations that are mandatory to implement (REQ), optional
(OPT), and NFSv4.0 operations that are required not to implement (MNI)

Implementation notes:
SSV:
* The spec claims this is mandatory, but we don't actually know of any
implementations, so we're ignoring it for now. The server returns
NFS4ERR_ENCR_ALG_UNSUPP on EXCHANGE_ID, which should be future-proof.
GSS on the backchannel:
* Again, theoretically required but not widely implemented (in
particular, the current Linux client doesn't request it). We return
NFS4ERR_ENCR_ALG_UNSUPP on CREATE_SESSION.
