[PATCH] [NFSv4] Oops in error paths

From: Steve Dickson
Date: Thu Jul 29 2004 - 08:26:07 EST


Here are some oops I found in error paths in the mounting
pathes while debugging something else... I sent it out a while
ago, but it didn't seem to get any traction....

The nfs_fill_super() fix is obvious and in nfs4_fill_super(),
the server->client ptr needs to be set before the cl_idmap check,
since rpc_shutdown_client() needs it when the check fails.
