This series addresses two Sparse static analysis warnings in the NFS
client related to RCU safety and pointer attributes.

The first patch resolves a "dereferencing noderef expression" warning 
within the nfs_page_class tracepoint by removing a redundant __private 
attribute that was causing Sparse to complain during trace-buffer 
assignments.

The second patch fixes an RCU-unsafe dereference in nfs_compare_super_address.
It wraps cl_xprt access with rcu_read_lock() and rcu_dereference(). 
Following reviewer feedback, the RCU critical section is kept minimal, 
covering only the transport and network namespace checks. An additional 
check for XPRT_CONNECTED is included to ensure the transport is logically 
active during the comparison.

v2:
  - Patch 1: Instead of changing the 'req' field type to unsigned long (as in v1),
    simply remove the redundant __private attribute. This resolves the
    Sparse warning while preserving the original pointer type.
  - Patch 2: Reduced RCU read-side critical section scope to cover only
    the necessary transport/net-ns checks, as suggested by reviewers.
