a486aeda9b rpc: minor cleanup of scheduler callback code
Try to make the comment here a little more clear and concise.

Also, this macro definition seems unnecessary.

36df9aae31 SUNRPC: Add a timer function to wait queues.
This is designed to replace the timeout timer in the individual rpc_tasks.
By putting the timer function in the wait queue, we will eventually be able
to reduce the total number of timers in use by the RPC subsystem.

5d00837b90 SUNRPC: Run rpc timeout functions as callbacks instead of in softirqs
An audit of the current RPC timeout functions shows that they don't really
ever need to run in the softirq context. As long as the softirq is
able to signal that the wakeup is due to a timeout (which it can do by
setting task->tk_status to -ETIMEDOUT) then the callback functions can just
run as standard task->tk_callback functions (in the rpciod/process
context).

The only possible border-line case would be xprt_timer() for the case of
UDP, when the callback is used to reduce the size of the transport
congestion window. In testing, however, the effect of moving that update
to a callback would appear to be minor.

32bfb5c0f4 SUNRPC: Allow the rpc_release() callback to be run on another workqueue
A lot of the work done by the rpc_release() callback is inappropriate for
rpciod as it will often involve things like starting a new rpc call in
order to clean up state after an interrupted NFSv4 open() call, or
calls to mntput(), etc.

This patch allows the caller of rpc_run_task() to specify that the
rpc_release callback should run on a different workqueue than the default
rpciod_workqueue.

c5a4dd8b7c SUNRPC: Eliminate side effects from rpc_malloc
Currently rpc_malloc sets req->rq_buffer internally.  Make this a more
generic interface:  return a pointer to the new buffer (or NULL) and
make the caller set req->rq_buffer and req->rq_bufsize.  This looks much
more like kmalloc and eliminates the side effects.

To fix a potential deadlock, this patch also replaces GFP_NOFS with
GFP_NOWAIT in rpc_malloc.  This prevents async RPCs from sleeping outside
the RPC's task scheduler while allocating their buffer.

dead28da8e SUNRPC: eliminate rpc_call()
Clean-up: replace rpc_call() helper with direct call to rpc_call_sync.

This makes NFSv2 and NFSv3 synchronous calls more computationally
efficient, and reduces stack consumption in functions that used to
invoke rpc_call more than once.

Test plan:
Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled.  Connectathon on NFS version 2,
version 3, and version 4 mount points.

0210714834 SUNRPC: switchable buffer allocation
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.

44c288732f NFSv4: stateful NFSv4 RPC call interface
The NFSv4 model requires us to complete all RPC calls that might
 establish state on the server whether or not the user wants to
 interrupt it. We may also need to schedule new work (including
 new RPC calls) in order to cancel the new state.

 The asynchronous RPC model will allow us to ensure that RPC calls
 always complete, but in order to allow for "synchronous" RPC, we
 want to add the ability to wait for completion.
 The waits are, of course, interruptible.
