We'd like to hide fields in rpc_xprt and rpc_clnt from upper layer protocols.
 Start by creating an API to force RPC rebind, replacing logic that simply
 sets cl_port to zero.

 Test-plan:
 Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily).  Connectathon
 with UDP and TCP.  NFSv2/3 and NFSv4 mounting should be carefully checked.
 Probably need to rig a server where certain services aren't running, or
 that returns an error for some typical operation.

 Add RPC client transport switch support for replacing buffer management
 on a per-transport basis.

 In the current IPv4 socket transport implementation, RPC buffers are
 allocated as needed for each RPC message that is sent.  Some transport
 implementations may choose to use pre-allocated buffers for encoding,
 sending, receiving, and unmarshalling RPC messages, however.  For
 transports capable of direct data placement, the buffers can be carved
 out of a pre-registered area of memory rather than from a slab cache.

 Test-plan:
 Millions of fsx operations.  Performance characterization with "sio" and
 "iozone".  Use oprofile and other tools to look for significant regression
 in CPU utilization.

 Thanks to Ed Keizer for bug and root cause.  He says: "... we could only mount
 the top-level Solaris share. We could not mount deeper into the tree.
 Investigation showed that Solaris allows UNIX authenticated FSINFO only on the
 top level of the share. This is a problem because we share/export our home
 directories one level higher than we mount them. I.e. we share the partition
 and not the individual home directories. This prevented access to home
 directories."

 We still may need to try auth_sys for the case where the client doesn't have
 appropriate credentials.

 If the server receives an NLM cancel call and finds no waiting lock to
 cancel, then chances are the lock has already been applied, and the client
 just hadn't yet processed the NLM granted callback before it sent the
 cancel.

 The Open Group text, for example, perimts a server to return either success
 (LCK_GRANTED) or failure (LCK_DENIED) in this case.  But returning an error
 seems more helpful; the client may be able to use it to recognize that a
 race has occurred and to recover from the race.

 So, modify the relevant functions to return an error in this case.

 Currently when lockd gets an NLM_CANCEL request, it also does an unlock for
 the same range.  This is incorrect.

 The Open Group documentation says that "This procedure cancels an
 *outstanding* blocked lock request."  (Emphasis mine.)

 Also, consider a client that holds a lock on the first byte of a file, and
 requests a lock on the entire file.  If the client cancels that request
 (perhaps because the requesting process is signalled), the server shouldn't
 apply perform an unlock on the entire file, since that will also remove the
 previous lock that the client was already granted.

 Or consider a lock request that actually *downgraded* an exclusive lock to
 a shared lock.

Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

 According to RFC3530 we're supposed to cache the change attribute
 at the time the client receives a write delegation.
 If the inode is clean, a CB_GETATTR callback by the server to the
 client is supposed to return the cached change attribute.
 If, OTOH, the inode is dirty, the client should bump the cached
 change attribute by 1.

 Most NFS server implementations allow up to 64KB reads and writes on the
 wire.  The Solaris NFS server allows up to a megabyte, for instance.

 Now the Linux NFS client supports transfer sizes up to 1MB, too.  This will
 help reduce protocol and context switch overhead on read/write intensive NFS
 workloads, and support larger atomic read and write operations on servers
 that support them.
