[PATCH v5 0/7] nfsd: CB_SEQUENCE error handling fixes and cleanups

From: Jeff Layton
Date: Fri Feb 07 2025 - 16:54:17 EST


This patch is mostly the same as the v4 series, but with the first
patch broken up into multiple changes (as Chuck suggested), and a few
changes to the comments.

Another minor difference here is that I didn't change the code to ignore
the return value of rpc_restart_call() and rpc_restart_call_prepare().
These could end up being backported to kernels that have to handle those
cases.
