Yes, or even call_usermodehelper_root().

I didn't argue with the new helper that, yes, has the additional
argument. Although personally I think it would be better to not
add it into kmod.c (until it has more users), but I am not sure
there is a better place somewhere in nfs code. Whatever is more
convenient for you.

To me this looks like call_usermodehelper_keys().

Oleg.
