3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfie...@redhat.com>
commit 68eb35081e297b37db49d854cda144c6a3397699 upstream.
I added cr_flavor to the data compared in same_creds without any
justification, in d5497fc693a446ce9100fcf4117c3f795ddfd0d2 "nfsd4: move
rq_flavor into svc_cred".
Recent client changes then started making
mount -osec=krb5 server:/export /mnt/
echo "hello" >/mnt/TMP
umount /mnt/
mount -osec=krb5i server:/export /mnt/
echo "hello" >/mnt/TMP
to fail due to a clid_inuse on the second open.
Mounting sequentially like this with different flavors probably isn't
that common outside artificial tests. Also, the real bug here may be
that the server isn't just destroying the former clientid in this case
(because it isn't good enough at recognizing when the old state is
gone). But it prompted some discussion and a look back at the spec, and
I think the check was probably wrong. Fix and document.
