This patch introduces support to setup the callback xprt on the client side.
It allocates/ destroys the preallocated memory structures used to process
backchannel requests.
At setup time, xprt_setup_backchannel() is invoked to allocate one or
more rpc_rqst structures and substructures. This ensures that they
are available when an RPC callback arrives. The rpc_rqst structures
are maintained in a linked list attached to the rpc_xprt structure.
We keep track of the number of allocations so that they can be correctly
removed when the channel is destroyed.
When an RPC callback arrives, xprt_alloc_bc_request() is invoked to
obtain a preallocated rpc_rqst structure. An rpc_xprt structure is
returned, and its RPC_BC_PREALLOC_IN_USE bit is set in
rpc_xprt->bc_flags. The structure is removed from the the list
since it is now in use, and it will be later added back when its
user is done with it.
After the RPC callback replies, the rpc_rqst structure is returned
by invoking xprt_free_bc_request(). This clears the
RPC_BC_PREALLOC_IN_USE bit and adds it back to the list, allowing it
to be reused by a subsequent RPC callback request.
To be consistent with the reception of RPC messages, the backchannel requests
should be placed into the 'struct rpc_rqst' rq_rcv_buf, which is then in turn
copied to the 'struct rpc_rqst' rq_private_buf.

Add an rpc credential that is not tied to any particular auth mechanism,
but that can be cached by NFS, and later used to look up a cred for
whichever auth mechanism that turns out to be valid when the RPC call is
being made.

The transport class (svc_xprt_class) represents a type of transport, e.g.
udp, tcp, rdma. A transport class has a unique name and a set of transport
operations kept in the svc_xprt_ops structure.
A transport class can be dynamically registered and unregisterd. The
svc_xprt_class represents the module that implements the transport
type and keeps reference counts on the module to avoid unloading while
there are active users.
The endpoint (svc_xprt) is a generic, transport independent endpoint that can
be used to send and receive data for an RPC service. It inherits it's
operations from the transport class.
A transport driver module registers and unregisters itself with svc sunrpc
by calling svc_reg_xprt_class, and svc_unreg_xprt_class respectively.

This implements the configuration and building of the core transport
switch implementation of the rpcrdma transport. Stubs are provided for
the rpcrdma protocol handling, and the infiniband/iwarp verbs interface.
These are provided in following patches.

Introduce a replacement for the in-kernel portmapper client that supports
all 3 versions of the rpcbind protocol. This code is not used yet.
Original code by Groupe Bull updated for the latest kernel, with multiple
bug fixes.
Note that rpcb_clnt.c does not yet support registering via versions 3 and
4 of the rpcbind protocol. That is planned for a later patch.

Move the bulk of client-side socket-specific code into a separate source
file, net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c.
Test-plan:
Millions of fsx operations. Performance characterization such as "sio" or
"iozone". Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily, server
reboots). Connectathon with v2, v3, and v4.

Clean-up: Move some code that is common to both RPC client- and server-side
socket transports into its own source file, net/sunrpc/socklib.c.
Test-plan:
Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled. Millions of fsx operations over
UDP, client and server. Connectathon over UDP.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
