[patch 03/19] SUNRPC: avoid choosing an IPMI port for RPC traffic

-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx>

Some hardware uses port 664 for its hardware-based IPMI listener. Teach
the RPC client to avoid using that port by raising the default minimum port
number to 665.

Test plan:
Find a mainboard known to use port 664 for IPMI; enable IPMI; mount NFS
servers in a tight loop.
