The first patch is a minimal fix which is suitable for all kernels since 2.6.19-pre1. The second adds some consequent cleaning up and is probably best left for 2.6.22-rc (and so it not being cc:ed to stable@kernel.org). Thanks, NeilBrown [PATCH 001 of 2] knfsd: Use a spinlock to protect sk_info_authunix [PATCH 002 of 2] knfsd: Rename sk_defer_lock to sk_lock
