I think some distros want to be able to compile out NFSv4.x
on small systems, and take all the backchannel cruft with it.

The client side backward direction credit limit, now
in 4.4, is already a constant.

The client side ULP uses a constant for the slot table
size: NFS4_MAX_BACK_CHANNEL_OPS. I’m not 100% sure but
the server seems to just echo that number back to the
client.

I’d rather not add an admin knob for this. Why would it
be necessary?
