I guess the struct ceph_fsid embedded in the client(s) could be changed
into a pointer initialized to NULL (and later dynamically allocated).
Then, the have_fsid check could be replaced by a NULL check. Not sure
if it would bring any real benefit, though. Want me to give that a try?
Or maybe I misunderstood you question.

Ok, I'll send v2 in a second, without this check.

[ BTW, looks like my initial post didn't made it into vger.kernel.org.
It was probably dropped because I screwed-up the 'To:' field in my
email (no idea how I did that, TBH). ]
