sunrpc: keep a count of swapfiles associated with the rpc_clnt
Jerome reported seeing a warning pop when working with a swapfile on NFS. The nfs_swap_activate can end up calling sk_set_memalloc while holding the rcu_read_lock and that function can sleep. To fix that, we need to take a reference to the xprt while holding the rcu_read_lock, set the socket up for swapping and then drop that reference. But, xprt_put is not exported and having NFS deal with the underlying xprt is a bit of layering violation anyway. Fix this by adding a set of activate/deactivate functions that take a rpc_clnt pointer instead of an rpc_xprt, and have nfs_swap_activate and nfs_swap_deactivate call those. Also, add a per-rpc_clnt atomic counter to keep track of the number of active swapfiles associated with it. When the counter does a 0->1 transition, we enable swapping on the xprt, when we do a 1->0 transition we disable swapping on it. This also allows us to be a bit more selective with the RPC_TASK_SWAPPER flag. If non-swapper and swapper clnts are sharing a xprt, then we only need to flag the tasks from the swapper clnt with that flag.
