I last sent this series about a month ago, and dropped the ball on
sending out a newer version afterward. This version fixes some minor
issues that Chuck and Sashiko pointed out in review.

The nfsstat tool currently scrapes /proc/net/rpc/nfsd for server
statistics. This procfs interface has several limitations: the
counters are global (not network-namespace-aware), the format is
fragile to parse, and it cannot be extended without breaking
existing parsers.

This series adds per-network-namespace procedure call counts to
the sunrpc layer and exposes them through a new netlink handler
in the nfsd generic netlink family, allowing nfsstat to retrieve
server statistics via netlink with a procfs fallback for older
kernels. The nfs-utils patch for that part is already merged.

Additionally, this version adds tracking of callback operation counts.

Ideally, I'd like to see this go into v7.3.

Changes in v7:
- Skip never-called operations in the server-stats netlink dump instead
  of emitting a zero-count entry for every opcode
- Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260619-exportd-netlink-v6-0-ddef3499793c@kernel.org

Changes in v6:
- Emit the entire server-stats object in a single netlink dump message
- Count CB_SEQUENCE on v4.1+ callbacks, for parity with the forechannel SEQUENCE count
- Fix a use-after-free in nfsd4_run_cb() by snapshotting the opcode, net, and minorversion
- Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260618-exportd-netlink-v5-0-e9aef947af3d@kernel.org

Changes in v5:
- Add NFSv4 callback call counts to nfsstat upcall
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260616-exportd-netlink-v4-0-03505aee3883@kernel.org

Changes in v4:
- Ensure error is returned when nla_put_*() calls fail
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260609-exportd-netlink-v3-0-aa5508a5bb1d@kernel.org

Changes in v3:
- Only increment per-net stats for the "primary" program
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260525-exportd-netlink-v2-0-40003fed450c@kernel.org
