Title:
  Any access to an NFSv4 based NFSroot fails with "Not a directory".

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm using NFSv4 and FAI to install Ubuntu LTS. Currently I'm on 10.04
  with the linux-lts-backport-oneiric kernel.

  A week ago I have started to base a new release of our LiMux
  distribution
  (http://www.muenchen.de/Rathaus/dir/limux/english/index.html) on 12.04
  and got NFSv4 access errors after mounting the NFSroot from the FAI
  installation.

  This is the last error from the NFSroot initramfs, before the kernels
  "can't find init' panic:

  run-init: /sbin/init: Not a directory

  The origin of this error is commit 1788ea6e in the kernel git
  repository:

  nfs: when attempting to open a directory, fall back on normal lookup
  (try #5)

  It was fixed in v3.5-rc1 by commit 0ef97dcf

  nfs: don't open in ->d_revalidate

  I was able to fix this error by either porting 0ef97dcf + 16b1c1cd +
  5ede7b1c to the precise kernel, or reverting 1788ea6e.

  I would like to get the fix included into the Ubuntu kernel, so I
  don't have to rebuild the kernel for every security update.
