Just bug fixes, importantly nfs chroot one that several people are hitting.

d_set_d_op bugs *should* be a thing of the past after the dust settles
from Al's work, so I'm leaving that area alone.

Remaining known bug is an nfsd oops when exporting filesystems that
supply a .d_revalidate(), which is not going to be a common configuration
and I'd like to do a d_revalidate API change to fix it, so don't want to
rush that through.

Thanks,
Nick
