Re: [PATCH 5 3/4] nfsd_open(): rename 'int access' to 'int may_flags' in nfsd_open()

Just rename this variable, as the next patch will add a flag and
'access' as variable name would not be correct any more.

Use 32-bit or 64-bit llseek() hashes for directory offsets depending on
the NFS version. NFSv2 gets 32-bit hashes only.

NOTE: This patch got rather complex as Christoph asked to set the
filp->f_mode flag in the open call or immediatly after dentry_open()
in nfsd_open() to avoid races.
Personally I still do not see a reason for that and in my opinion
FMODE_32BITHASH/FMODE_64BITHASH flags could be set nfsd_readdir(), as it
follows directly after nfsd_open() without a chance of races.

NFS folks,

Since Bruce has ack'ed these patches I assume it will be OK if I carry
them in the ext4 tree for merging?  (They depend on changes in ext4
found in the first two patches of these patch series.)
