Chuck Lever f092075dd3 NFS: Always use the same SETCLIENTID boot verifier
Currently our NFS client assigns a unique SETCLIENTID boot verifier
for each server IP address it knows about.  It's set to CURRENT_TIME
when the struct nfs_client for that server IP is created.

During the SETCLIENTID operation, our client also presents an
nfs_client_id4 string to servers, as an identifier on which the server
can hang all of this client's NFSv4 state.  Our client's
nfs_client_id4 string is unique for each server IP address.

An NFSv4 server is obligated to wipe all NFSv4 state associated with
an nfs_client_id4 string when the client presents the same
nfs_client_id4 string along with a changed SETCLIENTID boot verifier.

When our client unmounts the last of a server's shares, it destroys
that server's struct nfs_client.  The next time the client mounts that
NFS server, it creates a fresh struct nfs_client with a fresh boot
verifier.  On seeing the fresh verifer, the server wipes any previous
NFSv4 state associated with that nfs_client_id4.

However, NFSv4.1 clients are supposed to present the same
nfs_client_id4 string to all servers.  And, to support Transparent
State Migration, the same nfs_client_id4 string should be presented
to all NFSv4.0 servers so they recognize that migrated state for this
client belongs with state a server may already have for this client.
(This is known as the Uniform Client String model).

If the nfs_client_id4 string is the same but the boot verifier changes
for each server IP address, SETCLIENTID and EXCHANGE_ID operations
from such a client could unintentionally result in a server wiping a
client's previously obtained lease.

Thus, if our NFS client is going to use a fixed nfs_client_id4 string,
either for NFSv4.0 or NFSv4.1 mounts, our NFS client should use a
boot verifier that does not change depending on server IP address.
Replace our current per-nfs_client boot verifier with a per-nfs_net
boot verifier.
