+ * Since cifs is a network file system, an "fsid" must be included for
+ * any nfs exports file entries which refer to cifs paths. In addition
+ * the cifs mount must be mounted with the "serverino" option (ie use stable
+ * server inode numbers instead of locally generated temporary ones).
+ * Although cifs inodes do not use generation numbers (have generation number
+ * of zero) - the inode number alone should be good enough for simple cases
+ * in which users want to export cifs shares with NFS. The decode and encode
+ * could be improved by using a new routine which expects 64 bit inode numbers
+ * instead of the default 32 bit routines in fs/exportfs
