people are on track with the cause and effect of this, and although
fixing this severely degenerate case appears to violate the letter of
POSIX.1-200x, Bruce and I (and enough others) agree that it should be
comitted.
So, this patch generates an ENOENT error for any attempt to do a path lookup
through an empty symlink (e.g. open(), stat()).

function has a return type of u_int32_t, into which it was somehow
supposed to encode:
* A valid 32-bit XID (which could be any value including 0).
* 0, meaning a duplicate request.
* -1, meaning a malloc failed (!);
We now ensure that all XIDs are non-zero, and pass the XID out via
a pointer argument.
In forward_find() and free_slot_by_xid(), remove an unnecessary
and confusing test for a negative result from an unsigned modulo
operation, but add an unnecessary cast to highlight why.
ensure that we never proceed with the mount() syscall if the server
is replying from the wrong source address. Previously the userland
RPC call to the remote nfsd would succeed, but the kernel uses
connect() so it would not see the replies, resulting in a hung
mount.
whether or not connect(2) is used for UDP client sockets. The default
is not to connect(), so existing clients will see no change in
behaviour.
The use of connect(2) for UDP clients has a number of advantages:
only replies from the intended address are received, and ICMP errors
pertaining to the connection are reported back to the application.

reconstructed from a tcpcb when needed.
Previously, tcp templates required the allocation of one
mbuf per connection. On large systems, this change should
free up a large number of mbufs.

robust and more consistant. This should stop most of the incorrect
