    NFSv4: Add 'server capability' flags for NFSv4 recommended attributes · 62ab460c
    Trond Myklebust authored
    If the NFSv4 server doesn't support a POSIX attribute, the generic NFS code
    needs to know that, so that it don't keep trying to poll for it.
    
    However, by the same count, if the NFSv4 server does support that
    attribute, then we should ensure that the inode metadata is appropriately
    labelled as being untrusted. For instance, if we don't know the correct
    value of the file's uid, we should certainly not be caching ACLs or ACCESS
    results.
