fh_match() is costly, especially when filehandles are large (as is
the case for NFSv4). It needs to be used sparingly when searching
data structures. Unfortunately, with common workloads, I see
multiple thousands of objects stored in file_hashtbl[], which has
just 256 buckets, making its bucket hash chains quite lengthy.

Walking long hash chains with the state_lock held blocks other
activity that needs that lock. Sizable hash chains are a common
occurrance once the server has handed out some delegations, for
example -- IIUC, each delegated file is held open on the server by
an nfs4_file object.

To help mitigate the cost of searching with fh_match(), replace the
nfs4_file hash table with an rhashtable, which can dynamically
resize its bucket array to minimize hash chain length.

The result of this modification is an improvement in the latency of
NFSv4 operations, and the reduction of nfsd CPU utilization due to
eliminating the cost of multiple calls to fh_match() and reducing
the CPU cache misses incurred while walking long hash chains in the
nfs4_file hash table.
