 "Bugfixes:

   - Fix handling of ENOSPC so that if we have to resend writes, they
     are written synchronously

   - SUNRPC RDMA transport fixes from Chuck

   - Several fixes for delegated timestamps in NFSv4.2

   - Failure to obtain a directory delegation should not cause stat() to
     fail with NFSv4

   - Rename was failing to update timestamps when a directory delegation
     is held on NFSv4

   - Ensure we check rsize/wsize after crossing a NFSv4 filesystem
     boundary

   - NFSv4/pnfs:

      - If the server is down, retry the layout returns on reboot

      - Fallback to MDS could result in a short write being incorrectly
        logged

  Cleanups:

   - Use memcpy_and_pad in decode_fh"
