The next commit will introduce nfsd_open_local_fh() which returns an nfsd_file structure. This commit exposes LOCALIO's required NFSD symbols to the NFS client: - Make nfsd_open_local_fh() symbol and other required NFSD symbols available to NFS in a global 'nfs_to' nfsd_localio_operations struct (global access suggested by Trond, nfsd_localio_operations suggested by NeilBrown). The next commit will also introduce nfsd_localio_ops_init() that init_nfsd() will call to initialize 'nfs_to'. - Introduce nfsd_file_file() that provides access to nfsd_file's backing file. Keeps nfsd_file structure opaque to NFS client (as suggested by Jeff Layton). - Introduce nfsd_file_put_local() that will put the reference to the nfsd_file's associated nn->nfsd_serv and then put the reference to the nfsd_file (as suggested by NeilBrown).

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 reStructuredText 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.
