Commit 88c22f92 converted the configfile.c routines
to use the parse_opt interfaces which broke how
default values from nfsmount.conf are managed.

Default values can not be added to the mount string
handed to the kernel. They must be interpreted into
the correct mount options then passed to the kernel.

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1912877

Hi,
 unfortunately this is incorrect.  As the referenced patch said:

    The default_value() call is now made as soon as the option has been
    parsed.  It is left on the options list so that new instances of the
    value are ignored.

 The new code doesn't leave it on the option list, so new instances are
 not ignored.

 conf_get_mntopts() processes options for the mount point, then options
 for the server, then global options.  If there is e.g. a defaultvers
 for both the mountpoint and as a global option, the global option will
 now not be ignored, so it takes precedence.

 The real problem as identified in the bugzilla discussion, is that
   	po_remove_all(options, "default");
 doesn't remove all the "default*" options as was the intent.  Clearly I
 never tested that.
 This is easily fixed with
 -	po_remove_all(options, "default");
 +	while (po_contains_prefix(options, "default", &ptr, 0) == PO_FOUND)
 +		po_remove_all(options, ptr);

 which I have tested :-)

 I'll follow up with a patch which reverts the incorrect fix, and adds
 this one.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
