Subject: [ 23/57] nfs: Show original device name verbatim in /proc/*/mount{s,info}

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

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben@...adent.org.uk>

commit 97a54868262da1629a3e65121e65b8e8c4419d9f upstream.

Since commit c7f404b ('vfs: new superblock methods to override
/proc/*/mount{s,info}'), nfs_path() is used to generate the mounted
device name reported back to userland.

nfs_path() always generates a trailing slash when the given dentry is
the root of an NFS mount, but userland may expect the original device
name to be returned verbatim (as it used to be).  Make this
canonicalisation optional and change the callers accordingly.

[jrnieder@...il.com: use flag instead of bool argument]
