exportfs: update documentation
Update documentation to the current state of affairs. Remove duplicated method descruptions in exportfs.h and point to Documentation/filesystems/ Exporting instead. Add a little file header comment in expfs.c describing what's going on and mentioning Neils and my copyright [1]. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: "J.
