[RFC PATCH v2 40/48] sunrpc: Use sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES) rather then sendpage

[David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>]

When transmitting data, call down into TCP using a single sendmsg with
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES to indicate that content should be spliced rather than
performing several sendmsg and sendpage calls to transmit header, data
pages and trailer.

To make this work, the data is assembled in a bio_vec array and attached to
a BVEC-type iterator.  The header and trailer are copied into page
fragments so that they can be freed with put_page and attached to iterators
of their own.  An iterator-of-iterators is then created to bridge all three
iterators (headers, data, trailer) and that is passed to sendmsg to pass
the entire message in a single call.
