    64 bit ino support for NFS client · 4e769b93

    Hi.
    
    Attached is a patch to modify the NFS client code to support
    64 bit ino's, as appropriate for the system and the NFS
    protocol version.
    
    The code basically just expand the NFS interfaces for routines
    which handle ino's from using ino_t to u64 and then uses the
    fileid in the nfs_inode instead of i_ino in the inode.  The
    code paths that were updated are in the getattr method and
    the readdir methods.
    
    This should be no real change on 64 bit platforms.  Since
    the ino_t is an unsigned long, it would already be 64 bits
    wide.
    
        Thanx...
