it changed the default NFSROOT mount options to be the same as those employed by user space mounts. As it turns out, these new default mount options are not tolerated by many embedded systems. So far these problems have been due to specific behavior of certain embedded NICs. The NFS community does not have such hardware on hand for running tests. Commit 53d47375 recently introduced a clean way to specify default mount options for NFSROOT, so we can now easily restore the traditional defaults for NFSROOT: vers=2,udp,rsize=4096,wsize=4096 This should revert the new default NFSROOT mount options introduced with commit 56463e50.
