The NFSv4 protocol allows state to be revoked by the admin and has error codes which allow this to be communicated to the client. This patch - introduces a new state-id status SC_STATUS_ADMIN_REVOKED which can be set on open, lock, or delegation state. - reports NFS4ERR_ADMIN_REVOKED when these are accessed - introduces a per-client counter of these states and returns SEQ4_STATUS_ADMIN_STATE_REVOKED when the counter is not zero. Decrements this when freeing any admin-revoked state. - introduces stub code to find all interesting states for a given superblock so they can be revoked via the 'unlock_filesystem' file in /proc/fs/nfsd/ No actual states are handled yet.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
