NFS 2.4.0-11 noisy messages/NFS rpc.lockd returns error

doing a mount <address>:/dir /mount_point generates the following noisy error messages:

kmem_create: Forcing size word alignment - nfs-fh

also, the rpc.lockd program is reporting an error when invoked from the System V init startup scripts:

lockd: lockdsvc: invalid argument

during system initialization with init 2.78.

The radio-miropcm20.o driver reports 3 unresolved externals (apm_ functions) and fails with depmod errors during init.

lockd is a kernel thread nowadays, remove it from your nfsd start script or simply ignore the error (if you want compatibility with 2.2 kernels before 2.2.18).

  It is better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool,
            than to open it and remove all doubt.

Thanks. I saw [lockd] running from ps -ax along with [rpciod] -- performance was also significantly faster. 2.2 compatibility is a problem, but not a serious one. I am updating initscripts.rpm. More stuff in the kernel is always better.
