[Bug 9619] [nfs] Restarting mountd kills existing mounts

--- Comment #7 from Rick Macklem <rmacklem at FreeBSD.org> ---
In recent versions of FreeBSD, mountd has the "-S" option,
which can be used to avoid this from happening. It suspends/resumes
the nfsd threads while it is reloading the exports.

Some have suggested that it should be enabled by default, but others
felt that would be a POLA violation (since all NFS services stop during
the suspend), so it has never been made the default and must be
enabled via the "-S" option.
