gssd: configurable connection timeout for the rpcgssd service
When using rpc.gssd to secure NFSv3 FS using krb5, the following errors
can happen as a result of network congestion.
"rpc.gssd WARNING: can't create tcp rpc_clnt to server ... : RPC: Remote
system error - Connection timed out"
we had a successful reproducer of the problem which we tested using this
patch by starting rpc.gssd with "-T 60" as the option which solved the
problem. reproducer steps were to throttle the network using tc command
and then in a never ending loop mount the share, then write some data in
the file on the share and unmount it. keep a delay of 5 sec between the
iteration of each loop.
