[PATCH v2 4/4] sunrpc: remove unused svc_version vs_count field

From: Jeff Layton

Date: Mon May 25 2026 - 08:40:30 EST


Now that svc_seq_show() and the nfsd netlink stats handler both use
the per-netns svc_stat vs_count arrays, the global per-version
vs_count percpu counters are no longer read by anything. Remove the
vs_count field from struct svc_version and all the associated
DEFINE_PER_CPU_ALIGNED arrays and initializers across nfsd, lockd,
and the NFS client callback service.
