In the file fs/nfs/inode.c in nfs4_get_sb() there is a test that compares
the version of the incoming nfs4_mount_data versus NFS4_MOUNT_VERSION. If
these do not match, a warning message is printed. Inside the printk() for
this warning message, there is another test of the versions to determine
whether the string "older" or "newer" should be printed.
Shouldn't this second test be comparing NFS4_MOUNT_VERSION instead of
NFS_MOUNT_VERSION?
I have included a patch for linux-2.6.1.
