[PATCH 1/2] nfsd: use threads array as-is in netlink interface

[Jeff Layton]

The old nfsdfs interface for starting a server with multiple pools
handles the special case of a single entry array passed down from
userland by distributing the threads over every NUMA node.

The netlink control interface however constructs an array of length
nfsd_nrpools() and fills any unprovided slots with 0's. This behavior
defeats the special casing that the old interface relies on.

Change nfsd_nl_threads_set_doit() to pass down the array from userland
as-is.

Fixes: 7f5c330b2620 ("nfsd: allow passing in array of thread counts via netlink")
