NFS server patches to support RDMA

NFS server patches to support RDMA

[Tom Tucker]

All:

I have a large set of patches that supports encoding RPC messages on an
RDMA transport in the NFS server. The patches include changes to the
existing SVC infrastructure as well as quite a bit of code in new files.

What is the best way to present these patches for review? We had thought
that we could stage this in a git repository on linux-nfs.org. 

Here's an annotated cumulative diffstat to give you an idea of the
scope...

 net/sunrpc/svc.c                |   20
 net/sunrpc/svcsock.c            |  145

 fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c               |    2

 net/sunrpc/svc_rdma.c           |  287 new

Unless there are just tons and tons of them, the best thing would
probably be just to send them here, one patch to a message....

... but it could be helpful to have that as well.
