:The whole file needs some **** documentation. :)
:I stared at that for so long wondering why the heck it was doing that.

    NFS is the worst-documented code in the kernel, VFS is second-worst.

    Without commit privs, documenting existing code eats too much of my time
    I'm afraid.  With commit privs I tended to document as I went.

:Is there a chance you could give this some of your famous regression
:testing?
:...

    Lemme look at the patch.... hmm.  The patch looks reasonable, I will
    test it as soon as I finish running the buildworld test on localhost
    NFS mounts.

    My source tree is getting a little messy.  We have madvise() broken open
    too.  Hopefully we will be able to get that committed soon.

:i'd rather get rid of the extra copying going on and since
:previously it was filled with garbage from the rest of the RPC
:structure i don't think it's nessesary.
