  Log:
      MFC nfs_bio.c 1.82.  This MFC does not do the involved changes that were
      made in 1.82 to solve the NFS append race, it simply prevents the same
      situation in -stable from causing a panic and solves the lost-dirty-data
      problem.  The append race still exists, however, which means that two
      processes appending to the same file over NFS may wind up overlapping
      their writes.
  
      Under stable we can use biosize'd buffers, even for buffers that straddle
      the file EOF, so we use this trick in the MFC.  Under current we cannot
      which is the reason why this patch looks quite different from the patch
      in current.
