we will only trust a positive name cache entry for a specified amount of
time before falling back to a LOOKUP RPC, even if the ctime for the file
handle matches the cached copy in the name cache entry. The timeout is
configured via a new 'nametimeo' mount option and defaults to 60 seconds.
It may be set to zero to disable positive name caching entirely.

by both clients. Since the NLM uses various fields of the
nfsmount structure, those fields were extracted and put in a
separate nfs_mountcommon structure stored in sys/nfs/nfs_mountcommon.h.
This structure also has a function pointer for a function that
extracts the required information from the mount point and nfs vnode
for that particular client, for information stored differently by the
clients.

for negative name cache entries in a manner analogous to
r202767 for the regular NFS client. Also, make the code in
nfs_lookup() compatible with that of the regular client
and replace the sysctl variable that enabled negative name
caching with the mount point option.

support for NFSv4 as well as NFSv2 and 3.
It lives in 3 subdirs under sys/fs:
nfs - functions that are common to the client and server
nfsclient - a mutation of sys/nfsclient that call generic functions
to do RPCs and handle state. As such, it retains the
buffer cache handling characteristics and vnode semantics that
are found in sys/nfsclient, for the most part.
nfsserver - the server. It includes a DRC designed specifically for
NFSv4, that is used instead of the generic DRC in sys/rpc.
The build glue will be checked in later, so at this point, it
consists of 3 new subdirs that should not affect kernel building.
