[ewg] [GIT PULL OFED-1.4.2] NFSRDMA bug fixes

[Jon Mason]

Hey Vlad,

Please pull for OFED 1.4.2 fixes

ssh://vlad@sofa.openfabrics.org/home/jon/scm/ofed_kernel-1.4.git dev

It contains fixes for 1675, 1676, and 1677.  It also contains a fix for
a RPC encode/decode issue found on reiserfs (which has the stale
file handle issues).  I can open a bug for this issue if you like.

commit 71a0c8f2860c9aece00bfa72cc4f5fae147ec8d5
Author: Jon Mason <jon at opengridcomputing.com>
Date:   Fri Jul 10 14:56:37 2009 -0500

    kref safety checks were removed in previous versions due to kref
    behaving differently in 2.6.18 (and older).  These sanity checks are
    needed for IB (though never hit on iWARP testing).  This patch re-adds
    them and updates them with the correct behavior.
    
    This fixes SLES10sp2

    RHEL5.3 does not need the backported write_cache_pages that RHEL5.2
    needs.  Remove it and call the in-kernel version of that function.
