nfsd: update create verifier comment
I don't know if that Solaris behavior matters any more or if it's still possible to look up that bug ID any more. The XFS behavior's definitely still relevant, though; any but the most recent XFS filesystems will lose the top bits. Reported-by: Frank S. Filz <ffilzlnx@mindspring.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
