[PATCH] knfsd: match GRANTED_RES replies using cookies
When we send a GRANTED_MSG call, we current copy the NLM cookie provided in the original LOCK call - because in 1996, some broken clients seemed to rely on this bug. However, this means the cookies are not unique, so that when the client's GRANTED_RES message comes back, we cannot simply match it based on the cookie, but have to use the client's IP address in addition. Which breaks when you have a multi-homed NFS client. The X/Open spec explicitly mentions that clients should not expect the same cookie; so one may hope that any clients that were broken in 1996 have either been fixed or rendered obsolete.
