Subject: Re: more nfsd changes for 2.6.26

A few more nfsd-related changes are available in the git repository at:

	git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux.git for-linus

Mainly this adds a couple new interfaces from Wendy Cheng which allow
userland to tell the nfs server to drop locks held on a given filesystem
(or held by clients accessing the server via a given server ip address),
helpful in high-availability setups when taking down a server whose job
is being taken over by another.

(This could have probably gone with the first pull request, but the
patches were still getting a little work--a small bugfix, and some
fiddling with function names and such.)

The rest are miscellaneous minor bugfixes and cleanup.

--b.

David M. Richter (4):
      leases: fix a return-value mixup
      leases: when unlocking, skip locking-related steps
      leases: move lock allocation earlier in generic_setlease()
      leases: remove unneeded variable from fcntl_setlease().

J. Bruce Fields (2):
      locks: don't call ->copy_lock methods on return of conflicting locks
      nfsd: don't allow setting ctime over v4

James Lentini (1):
      Update to NFS/RDMA documentation

Wendy Cheng (2):
      lockd: unlock lockd locks associated with a given server ip
      lockd: unlock lockd locks held for a certain filesystem
