Upon receiving a request for async copy, create a new kthread. If we get asynchronous request, make sure to copy the needed arguments/state from the stack before starting the copy. Then start the thread and reply back to the client indicating copy is asynchronous. nfsd_copy_file_range() will copy in a loop over the total number of bytes is needed to copy. In case a failure happens in the middle, we ignore the error and return how much we copied so far. Once done creating a workitem for the callback workqueue and send CB_OFFLOAD with the results. The lifetime of the copy stateid is bound to the vfs copy. This way we don't need to keep the nfsd_net structure for the callback. We could keep it around longer so that an OFFLOAD_STATUS that came late would still get results, but clients should be able to deal without that. We handle OFFLOAD_CANCEL by sending a signal to the copy thread and calling kthread_stop. A client should cancel any ongoing copies before calling DESTROY_CLIENT; if not, we return a CLIENT_BUSY error. If the client is destroyed for some other reason (lease expiration, or server shutdown), we must clean up any ongoing copies ourselves.
