That's utter nonsense. We _never_ relied on the mount command to set
defaults for us. I remember all too well debugging old versions of
am-utils/amd that set the TCP flag and then happily set timeout values
of 7/10 second. As far as I know, all am-utils versions since then have
used timeo=0, retrans=0.
However, that does illustrate something else:
nfs_set_transport_defaults() has never been necessary for setting timeo
and retrans, since the zero case is already covered in
nfs_init_timeout_values() (which is also where the sanity checks are
applied).

NFS: Fix the mount protocol defaults for binary mounts
Move the UDP/TCP default timeo/retrans settings for text mounts to
nfs_init_timeout_values(), which was were they were always being
initialised for binary mounts.
Ensure we do initialise the transport protocol for the legacy binary mount
case in nfs_validate_mount_data.
Ensure that we sanity check the transport protocol in the legacy binary
mount case in nfs4_validate_mount_data
Fix up the incorrect values of NFS_DEF_UDP_TIMEO, NFS_DEF_UDP_RETRANS to
match the nfs manpage documentation.
