Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: remove non-exclusive pipe creation from RPC pipefs

This patch-set was created in context of clone of git branch:
git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/nfs-2.6.git
and rebased on tag "v3.1".

SUNRPC pipefs non-exclusive pipe creation code looks obsolete. IOW, as I see
it, all pipes are creating with unique full path and only once.
