Just #1 and #2? That's decidedly odd.

Also odd is that it's _nfsd_ that's affected, not nfs. It also affects
binfmt_misc, so it appears that it's something to do with get_sb_single(), and
looking at that function, I can sort of see why it might be. I'll look into it further.

It's easier to review them in that manner. If you don't think git is up to it,
then combine them.
