I hereby solicit a feature freeze exception for the NFS backup review [1].

Although only about 140 lines of non-test code, this review completes
the implementation of the NFS backup blueprint [2].  Most of the
actual work for this blueprint was a refactor of the Swift backup
driver to
abstract the backup/restore business logic from the use of the Swift
object store itself as the backup repository.  With the help of Xing
Yang, Jay Bryant, and Ivan Kolodyazhny, that review [3] merged
yesterday and made the K3 FFE deadline.

In evaluating this FFE request, please take into account the following
considerations:

   * Without the second review, the goal of the blueprint remains
     unfullfilled.

   * This code was upstream in January and was essentially complete
     with only superficial changes since then.

   * As of March 5 this review had two core +2s.  Delay since then has
     been entirely due to wait time on the dependent review and need
     for rebase given upstream code churn.

   * No risk is added outside NFS backup service itself since the
     changes to current code are all in the core refactor and that
     is already merged.

If this FFE is granted, I will give the required rebase my immediate
attention.

Thanks.
