The following changes in 3.13.0-35.62:
 * sunrpc: create a new dummy pipe for gssd to hold open
   - LP: #1327563
 * sunrpc: replace sunrpc_net->gssd_running flag with a more reliable check
   - LP: #1327563
 * nfs: check if gssd is running before attempting to use krb5i auth in SETCLIENTID call
   - LP: #1327563
are causing rpc.gssd to fill syslog with messages of the form
ERROR: can't open /run/rpc_pipefs/gssd/clntXX/info: No such file or directory

The problem was discussed last winter in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1037793
where the resolution was to include the following three patches:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=138624689302466&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=138624684502447&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=138624684502447&w=2

These patches are already in the upstream kernel (since 3.14). I suggest cherry-picking them for 3.13. Commit hashes from the 3.14 branch:
