problems with chown as root on nfs4 export

[Craig Yoshioka]

> From what I was told, trying a uid string is only a fallback scenario for the client.  Instead, it turns out root (uid 0) was improperly triggering a conditional that mapped it to nobody on maproot exports.  I just tried a fixed version and it works now.

Nevermind, I spoke too soon.  I hadn’t properly cleared the effect of setting:

echo N >/sys/module/nfs/parameters/nfs4_disable_idmapping

but just to confirm, setting the above in linux clients does cause their SETATTR calls to pass the username instead of the uid.  Unfortunately, this setting is not the default.
