Merge tag 'nfsd-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cel/linux

Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever:
 "This release completes the SunRPC thread scheduler work that was begun
  in v6.6. The scheduler can now find an svc thread to wake in constant
  time and without a list walk. Thanks again to Neil Brown for this
  overhaul.

  Lorenzo Bianconi contributed infrastructure for a netlink-based NFSD
  control plane. The long-term plan is to provide the same functionality
  as found in /proc/fs/nfsd, plus some interesting additions, and then
  migrate the NFSD user space utilities to netlink.

  A long series to overhaul NFSD's NFSv4 operation encoding was applied
  in this release. The goals are to bring this family of encoding
  functions in line with the matching NFSv4 decoding functions and with
  the NFSv2 and NFSv3 XDR functions, preparing the way for better memory
  safety and maintainability.

  A further improvement to NFSD's write delegation support was
  contributed by Dai Ngo. This adds a CB_GETATTR callback, enabling the
  server to retrieve cached size and mtime data from clients holding
  write delegations. If the server can retrieve this information, it
  does not have to recall the delegation in some cases.

  The usual panoply of bug fixes and minor improvements round out this
  release. As always I am grateful to all contributors, reviewers, and
  testers"
