I always love things like this. "This technically breaks X, but
obviously nobody used X, because X always crashed." Reminds me of how we
success^W accidentally removed qcow2 encryption.

Technically however this also changes the runtime parameter names, I
think. Giving them probably did work in 2.8, so it is not compatible
there. I don't mind very much, though, and you're the maintainer, so
it's fine with me.

Anyway, I think this patch should also update nfs_refresh_filename().
