nfsd: formally deprecate legacy nfsd syscall interface
The syscall interface is has been replaced by a more flexible interface since 2.6.0. It is time to work towards discarding the old interface. So add a entry in feature-removal-schedule.txt and print a warning when the interface is used. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>

+What: access to nfsd auth cache through sys_nfsservctl or '.' files
+ in the 'nfsd' filesystem.
+When: 2.6.40
+Why: This is a legacy interface which have been replaced by a more
+ dynamic cache. Continuing to maintain this interface is an
+ unnecessary burden.
