This patch adds client support for decoding a single NFS4_CONTENT_DATA
segment returned by the server. This is the simplest implementation
possible, since it does not account for any hole segments in the reply.

<title>NFSv4: make cache consistency bitmask dynamic</title>

Client uses static bitmask for GETATTR on CLOSE/WRITE/DELEGRETURN
and ignores the fact that it might have some attributes marked
invalid in its cache. Compared to v3 where all attributes are
retrieved in postop attributes, v4's cache is frequently out of
sync and leads to standalone GETATTRs being sent to the server.

Instead, in addition to the minimum cache consistency attributes
also check cache_validity and adjust the GETATTR request accordingly.

<title>NFS: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array</title>

<id>1ad8dd939a9826ff6f8c69ac13e4e1dbba076703</id>
<content type='text'>
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

<title>NFSv4.1: fix handling of backchannel binding in BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, if the client sends BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION with
NFS4_CDFC4_FORE_OR_BOTH but only gets NFS4_CDFS4_FORE back it ignores
that it wasn't able to enable a backchannel.

To make sure, the client sends BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION as the first
operation on the connections (ie., no other session compounds haven't
been sent before), and if the client's request to bind the backchannel
is not satisfied, then reset the connection and retry.

<title>NFS: Ensure security label is set for root inode</title>

<content type='text'>
When using NFSv4.2, the security label for the root inode should be set
via a call to nfs_setsecurity() during the mount process, otherwise the
inode will appear as unlabeled for up to acdirmin seconds.  Currently
the label for the root inode is allocated, retrieved, and freed entirely
witin nfs4_proc_get_root().

Add a field for the label to the nfs_fattr struct, and allocate &amp; free
the label in nfs_get_root(), where we also add a call to
nfs_setsecurity().  Note that for the call to nfs_setsecurity() to
succeed, it's necessary to also move the logic calling
security_sb_{set,clone}_security() from nfs_get_tree_common() down into
nfs_get_root()... otherwise the SBLABEL_MNT flag will not be set in the
super_block's security flags and nfs_setsecurity() will silently fail.
