[PATCH 0/2] SUNRPC: keep the client's sends on their node, and stop copying them

[Mike Snitzer <snitzer@kernel.org>]

Two changes to the RPC client's TCP send path, based on
anna-nfs/linux-next.

The first adds WQ_SYSFS to rpciod and xprtiod, so that an administrator
can make their affinity strict and keep their work off far NUMA nodes.
Nothing changes until the sysfs attributes are written.

The second sends a request's pages to the TCP socket with
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES on its first transmission, as the server already does,
instead of copying them.  A retransmission is still copied.

  SUNRPC: Make rpciod and xprtiod visible in sysfs
  SUNRPC: Splice a request's pages into the TCP socket
