[pnfs] filehandles and GETDEVICELIST/GETDEVICEINFO

hello,
i found in the server code that both GETDEVICELIST and GETDEVICEINFO
get a flag set that permits the operation to proceed without a current
filehandle.
that sounds correct for GETDEVICEINFO, but it seems that GETDEVICELIST
would need a filehandle so the server can id the filesystem in
question (and the draft confirms that). so i'm thinking that i should
remove the flag for -LIST, yes?
relatedly, the draft says that a possible error value for
GETDEVICEINFO is NFS4ERR_NOFILEHANDLE (but not NFS4ERR_FHEXPIRED, at
least) -- that error should be removed from the draft, yes?
thanks kindly,
d
