[PATCH] Add 32-bit compatibility for NFSv4 mount

This adds 32-bit compatibility for mounting an NFSv4 mount on a 64-bit
kernel (such as happens with PPC64).

The problem is that the mount data for the NFS4 mount process includes
auxilliary data pointers, probably because the NFS4 mount data may
conceivably exceed PAGE_SIZE in size - thus breaking against the hard
limit imposed by sys_mount().
