xpo_prep_reply_hdr are not used now.

It was defined for tcp transport only, however it cannot be
called indirectly, so let's move it to its caller and
remove unused callback.

o Select the R_key to invalidate while the CPU cache still contains
  the received RPC Call transport header, rather than waiting until
  we're about to send the RPC Reply.

o Choose Send With Invalidate if there is exactly one distinct R_key
  in the received transport header. If there's more than one, the
  client will have to perform local invalidation after it has
  already waited for remote invalidation.

Reduce queuing on clients by allowing more credits by default.

64 is the default NFSv4.1 slot table size on Linux clients. This
size prevents the credit limit from putting RPC requests to sleep
again after they have already slept waiting for a session slot.

While sending each RPC Reply, svc_rdma_sendto allocates and DMA-
maps a separate buffer where the RPC/RDMA transport header is
constructed. The buffer is unmapped and released in the Send
completion handler. This is significant per-RPC overhead,
especially for small RPCs.

Instead, allocate and DMA-map a buffer, and cache it in each
svc_rdma_send_ctxt. This buffer and its mapping can be re-used
for each RPC, saving the cost of memory allocation and DMA
mapping.

<title>svcrdma: Don't overrun the SGE array in svc_rdma_send_ctxt</title>

Receive buffers are always the same size, but each Send WR has a
variable number of SGEs, based on the contents of the xdr_buf being
sent.

While assembling a Send WR, keep track of the number of SGEs so that
we don't exceed the device's maximum, or walk off the end of the
Send SGE array.

For now the Send path just fails if it exceeds the maximum.

The current logic in svc_rdma_accept bases the maximum number of
Send SGEs on the largest NFS request that can be sent or received.
In the transport layer, the limit is actually based on the
capabilities of the underlying device, not on properties of the
Upper Layer Protocol.

<title>svcrdma: Introduce svc_rdma_send_ctxt</title>

svc_rdma_op_ctxt's are pre-allocated and maintained on a per-xprt
free list. This eliminates the overhead of calling kmalloc / kfree,
both of which grab a globally shared lock that disables interrupts.
Introduce a replacement to svc_rdma_op_ctxt's that is built
especially for the svcrdma Send path.

Subsequent patches will take advantage of this new structure by
allocating real resources which are then cached in these objects.
The allocations are freed when the transport is torn down.

I've renamed the structure so that static type checking can be used
to ensure that uses of op_ctxt and send_ctxt are not confused. As an
additional clean up, structure fields are renamed to conform with
kernel coding conventions.

Additional clean ups:
- Handle svc_rdma_send_ctxt_get allocation failure at each call
  site, rather than pre-allocating and hoping we guessed correctly
- All send_ctxt_put call-sites request page freeing, so remove
  the @free_pages argument
- All send_ctxt_put call-sites unmap SGEs, so fold that into
  svc_rdma_send_ctxt_put
