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.
