ACK. and thanks!

FYI, Fred's original patch can be found here:
http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/14572/

It is also queued in the linux-pnfs tree:
http://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=bhalevy/linux-pnfs.git;a=commitdiff;h=1e3a7552d9de2ba101b76deed99605f0145fc4d5
but I haven't submitted it to Trond since I expected
it to get upstream (and to -next) via linux-kbuild.

Trond, would you like to pull this change to your nfsv41 branch?
(should appear before "nfs41: free slot" as Paul noticed)

Benny
