[RFC PATCH] NFSv4.1 support for NFS4_RESULT_PRESERVER_UNLINKED

[RFC PATCH] NFSv4.1 support for NFS4_RESULT_PRESERVER_UNLINKED

[Olga Kornievskaia]

From: Olga Kornievskaia <kolga@netapp.com>

In 4.1+, the server is allowed to set a flag
NFS4_RESULT_PRESERVE_UNLINKED in reply to the OPEN, that tells
the client that it does not need to do a silly rename of an
opened file when it's being removed.
