Subject: [PATCH 4.9 086/101] NFSv4: Revert commit 5f83d86cf531d ("NFSv4.x: Fix wraparound issues..")

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@...merspace.com>

commit fc40724fc6731d90cc7fb6d62d66135f85a33dd2 upstream.

The correct behaviour for NFSv4 sequence IDs is to wrap around
to the value 0 after 0xffffffff.
See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5661#section-2.10.6.1
