Yeah, so there's a decision to make here:

We could update our current code to something more recent.  That would
have the advantage that we could dump some temporary fixes like that
bigio patch.  But it would have the disadvantage that it will require
some tedious fixing up, and may introduce a new bug or two.  Also, it's
more work sunk into something that (as long as it's not reviewed and
split up into small patches) looks like a bit of a dead end.

So I'm tempted by the idea of freezing this prototype at 2.6.18, and
saying that any new development start from the ground up with the latest
kernel.  I liked Trond's idea of starting with a patch that literally
just clones the nfs_rpc_ops struct.  Interested in starting that?
