NFS: new idmapper
This patch creates a new idmapper system that uses the request-key function to
place a call into userspace to map user and group ids to names. The old
idmapper was single threaded, which prevented more than one request from running
at a single time. This means that a user would have to wait for an upcall to
finish before accessing a cached result.
The upcall result is stored on a keyring of type id_resolver. See the file
Documentation/filesystems/nfs/idmapper.txt for instructions.
