Description

The mountd is doing IP to name translation for every nfsauth request from kernel (see nfsauth_access() and the netdir_getbyaddr() call there), even such a name is not necessarily needed later in check_client(). We should change mountd to do the translation only in a case such translation is really needed. This might speedup some NFS setups.
