Re: NCPFS and brittle connections

Ok... how about this baby instead. I've replaced the stack allocated
request structure by one allocated with kmalloc() and reference counted
using an atomic_t. I couldn't see anything else that was associated to
the process, so I believe this should suffice.

(This is just a RFC. Once I get an ok from you I'll put together a more
proper patch mail)
