nfsd41: create_session operation



Implement the create_session operation confoming to
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-nfsv4-minorversion1-26

Look up the client id (generated by the server on exchange_id,
given by the client on create_session).
If neither a confirmed or unconfirmed client is found
then the client id is stale
If a confirmed cilent is found (i.e. we already received
create_session for it) then compare the sequence id
to determine if it's a replay or possibly a mis-ordered rpc.
If the seqid is in order, update the confirmed client seqid
and procedd with updating the session parameters.

If an unconfirmed client_id is found then verify the creds
and seqid.  If both match move the client id to confirmed state
and proceed with processing the create_session.

Currently, we do not support persistent sessions, and RDMA.

alloc_init_session generates a new sessionid and creates
a session structure.

NFSD_PAGES_PER_SLOT is used for the max response cached calculation, and for
the counting of DRC pages using the hard limits set in struct srv_serv.

A note on NFSD_PAGES_PER_SLOT:

Other patches in this series allow for NFSD_PAGES_PER_SLOT + 1 pages to be
cached in a DRC slot when the response size is less than NFSD_PAGES_PER_SLOT *
PAGE_SIZE but xdr_buf pages are used. e.g. a READDIR operation will encode a
small amount of data in the xdr_buf head, and then the READDIR in the xdr_buf
pages.  So, the hard limit calculation use of pages by a session is
underestimated by the number of cached operations using the xdr_buf pages.

Yet another patch caches no pages for the solo sequence operation, or any
compound where cache_this is False.  So the hard limit calculation use of
pages by a session is overestimated by the number of these operations in the
cache.

TODO: improve resource pre-allocation and negotiate session
parameters accordingly.  Respect and possibly adjust
backchannel attributes.
