Christoph Hellwig d9186c0397 nfs/blocklayout: add SCSI layout support
This is a trivial extension to the block layout driver to support the
new SCSI layouts draft.  There are three changes:

 - device identifcation through the SCSI VPD page.  This allows us to
   directly use the udev generated persistent device names instead of
   requiring an expensive lookup by crawling every block device node
   in /dev and reading a signature for it.
 - use of SCSI persistent reservations to protect device access and
   allow for robust fencing.  On the client sides this just means
   registering and unregistering a server supplied key.
 - an optimized LAYOUTCOMMIT payload that doesn't send unessecary
   fields to the server.

Christoph Hellwig e0d4ed71ca pnfs/blocklayout: serialize GETDEVICEINFO calls
The rpc_pipefs code isn't thread safe, leading to occasional use after
frees when running xfstests generic/241 (dbench).

Christoph Hellwig 5c83746a0c pnfs/blocklayout: in-kernel GETDEVICEINFO XDR parsing
This patches moves parsing of the GETDEVICEINFO XDR to kernel space, as well
as the management of complex devices.  The reason for that is we might have
multiple outstanding complex devices after a NOTIFY_DEVICEID4_CHANGE, which
device mapper or md can't handle as they claim devices exclusively.

But as is turns out simple striping / concatenation is fairly trivial to
implement anyway, so we make our life simpler by reducing the reliance
on blkmapd.  For now we still use blkmapd by feeding it synthetic SIMPLE
device XDR to translate device signatures to device numbers, but in the
long runs I have plans to eliminate it entirely.

Christoph Hellwig 871760ce97 pnfs/blocklayout: move all rpc_pipefs related code into a single file
Create a file to house all the rpc_pipefs boilerplate code instead of
sprinkling it over a few files.
