Chuck Lever 53a75f22e7 NFS: Fix NFSv2 security settings
For a while now any NFSv2 mount where sec= is specified uses
AUTH_NULL. If sec= is not specified, the mount uses AUTH_UNIX.
Commit e68fd7c807 ("mount: use sec= that was specified on the
command line") attempted to address a very similar problem with
NFSv3, and should have fixed this too, but it has a bug.

The MNTv1 MNT procedure does not return a list of security flavors,
so our client makes up a list containing just AUTH_NULL. This should
enable nfs_verify_authflavors() to assign the sec= specified flavor,
but instead, it incorrectly sets it to AUTH_NULL.

I expect this would also be a problem for any NFSv3 server whose
MNTv3 MNT procedure returned a security flavor list containing only
AUTH_NULL.

Fixes: e68fd7c807 ("mount: use sec= that was specified on ... ")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
