Subject: nfsd patches for 2.6.29

The following bugfixes are also available from the for-2.6.29 git
repository at:

  git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux.git for-2.6.29

The CAP_MKNOD change should really go into CAP_FS_MASK, but that will be
a user-visible change, and some more deliberation may be required to be
sure we have CAP_FS_MASK exactly right; so I prefer to go ahead with the
one obvious nfsd-specific change now.

--b.

      NFSD: provide encode routine for OP_OPENATTR

J. Bruce Fields (1):
      nfsd: nfsd should drop CAP_MKNOD for non-root
