knfsd: Preparation for IPv6 support

Following are 13 patches for nfsd/sunrpc that are suitabble for
2.6.20.  They are from Chuck Lever and generalise some dependancies on
IPv4 to prepare the way for IPv6.  There is still a lot of work to do
before we can actually use IPv6 to talk to NFSD, but this removes some
barriers.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
