Looks good to me.  Could Chuck take it with nfsd stuff if somebody could
ACK the sysctl part?

There is an endianess problem with /proc/sys/fs/nfs/nsm_use_hostnames

 # cat /proc/sys/fs/nfs/nsm_use_hostnames

The nsm_use_hostnames variable is declared as "bool" which is required
for the correct type for the module parameter. However, this does not
work correctly with the entry in the /proc filesystem since this
currently requires "int".

Jia He already provided patches for this problem a couple of years ago,
but apparently they felt through the cracks and never got merged. So
here's a rebased version to finally fix this issue.

  sysctl: introduce new proc handler proc_dobool
  lockd: change the proc_handler for nsm_use_hostnames
