Subject: nfsd: return errors, not NULL, from export functions
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9a25b96c1f6e1a3c85c9524f3046c7c75d8fecc7;p=linux-beck.git

nfsd: return errors, not NULL, from export functions

I converted the various export-returning functions to return -ENOENT instead
of NULL, but missed a few cases.

This particular case could cause actual bugs in the case of a krb5 client that
doesn't match any ip-based client and that is trying to access a filesystem
not exported to krb5 clients.
