Hi...
I have a problem with nfs. It always worked, so I don't know what is
failing now.
I have a server running 2.6.11-rc3-mm2. I try to export a dir via nfs:
/etc/exports:
/raid belly.cps.unizar.es(ro,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)
nada:/proc/fs/nfs# exportfs -v
/raid

No, provide two different functions. In a header file make it a static
inline function that does nothing if this option

This patch adds the output interface control to VR41xx SIU driver.
And obsolete function for VR41xx SIU is removed.
