[PATCH] NFS: Fix a readdirplus bug

From: Trond Myklebust
Date: Tue Nov 30 2010 - 12:43:02 EST


When comparing filehandles in the helper nfs_same_file(), we should not be
using 'strncmp()': filehandles are not null terminated strings.

Instead, we should just use the existing helper nfs_compare_fh().
