Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: give out fewer session slots as limit approaches
Git-commit: de766e570413bd0484af0b580299b495ada625c3
Patch-mainline: v4.15
References: bsc#1150381
Instead of granting client's full requests until we hit our DRC size
limit and then failing CREATE_SESSIONs (and hence mounts) completely,
start granting clients smaller slot tables as we approach the limit.
The factor chosen here is pretty much arbitrary.
