** Description changed:

+ 
+ Fix: Change nfs to use sget_userns instead of sget, bypassing a
+ capability check that is not necessary for nfs.
+ 
+ Regression Potential: The behavior after the fix is functionally
+ equivalent to upstream, so this is unlikely to cause regressions.

  I am denied access to the subfilesystems exported by my nfs server (the
  top level filesystem itself is unaffected).
  
  The client is reporting that I do not have the necessary permissions.
  However, all was fine until the day before yesterday.
  
  When I revert my client to 4.4.0-28, everything is in working order again. I 
assume the permission problem is really a bug in kernel 4.4.0-31.

Title:
  [regression] NFS client: access problems after updating to kernel
  4.4.0-31-generic

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  Impact: A regression in xenial causes automatic mounting of exported
  submounts of an nfs mount to fail.

  Fix: Change nfs to use sget_userns instead of sget, bypassing a
  capability check that is not necessary for nfs.

  Regression Potential: The behavior after the fix is functionally
  equivalent to upstream, so this is unlikely to cause regressions.
