Looking quickly at nfs4_init_*_client_string.... I'm guessing that at least in testing environments client names are typically all the same length. And a failure to find a client by name might only have consequences in reboot recovery cases, so as long as this doesn't cause the rbtree code to crash or something, this might be harder than you'd think to notice. Anyway, applying for 3.19 and stable (I think 3.18's just about closed), thanks. --b. > > v2: Same patch. Slightly less generic subject.
