   up recursing into the NFS code due to memory reclaim.

Implement the new swapfile a_ops for NFS and hook up -&gt;direct_IO.  This
will set the NFS socket to SOCK_MEMALLOC and run socket reconnect under
PF_MEMALLOC as well as reset SOCK_MEMALLOC before engaging the protocol
-&gt;connect() method.

PF_MEMALLOC should allow the allocation of struct socket and related
objects and the early (re)setting of SOCK_MEMALLOC should allow us to
receive the packets required for the TCP connection buildup.

rpciod is trying to allocate memory for a new socket to talk to the
server. The VM ends up calling -&gt;releasepage to get more memory, and it
tries to do a blocking commit. That commit can't succeed however without
a connected socket, so we deadlock.

Fix this by setting PF_FSTRANS on the workqueue task prior to doing the
socket allocation, and having nfs_release_page check for that flag when
deciding whether to do a commit call. Also, set PF_FSTRANS
unconditionally in rpc_async_schedule since that function can also do
allocations sometimes.

xs_udp_data_ready() is operating on received packets, and tries to
do a dst_confirm() on the dst attached to the SKB.

This isn't right, dst confirmation is for output routes, not input
rights.  It's for resetting the timers on the nexthop neighbour entry
for the route, indicating that we've got good evidence that we've
successfully reached it.

With static RPC slots, the xprt backlog queue stats were useful in showing
when the transport (TCP) was starved by lack of RPC slots. The new dynamic
RPC slot code, commit d9ba131d8f58c0d2ff5029e7002ab43f913b36f9, always
provides an RPC slot and so only uses the xprt backlog queue when the
tcp_max_slot_table_entries value has been hit or when an allocation error
occurs. All requests are now placed on the xprt sending or pending queue which
need to be monitored for debugging.

The max_slot stat shows the maximum number of dynamic RPC slots reached which is
useful when debugging performance issues.

Add the new fields at the end of the mountstats xprt stanza so that mountstats
outputs the previous correct values and ignores the new fields. Bump
NFS_IOSTATS_VERS.

<title>SUNRPC: Ensure we return EAGAIN in xs_nospace if congestion is cleared</title>

By returning '0' instead of 'EAGAIN' when the tests in xs_nospace() fail
to find evidence of socket congestion, we are making the RPC engine believe
that the message was incorrectly sent and so it disconnects the socket
instead of just retrying.

The bug appears to have been introduced by commit
5e3771ce2d6a69e10fcc870cdf226d121d868491 (SUNRPC: Ensure that xs_nospace
return values are propagated).

Otherwise we will leak xprt structure and struct net reference.
