NLM/NFS: Use cached nlm_host when calling nlmclnt_proc()
Now that each NFS mount point caches its own nlm_host structure, it can be passed to nlmclnt_proc() for each lock request. By pinning an nlm_host for each mount point, we trade the overhead of looking up or creating a fresh nlm_host struct during every NLM procedure call for a little extra memory. We also restrict the nlmclnt_proc symbol to limit the use of this call to in-tree modules. Note that nlm_lookup_host() (just removed from the client's per-request NLM processing) could also trigger an nlm_host garbage collection. Now client-side nlm_host garbage collection occurs only during NFS mount processing. Since the NFS client now holds a reference on these nlm_host structures, they wouldn't have been affected by garbage collection anyway. Given that nlm_lookup_host() reorders the global nlm_host chain after every successful lookup, and that a garbage collection could be triggered during the call, we've removed a significant amount of per-NLM-request CPU processing overhead. Sidebar: there are only a few remaining references to the internals of NFS inodes in the client-side NLM code. The only references I found are related to extracting or comparing the inode's file handle via NFS_FH(). One is in nlmclnt_grant(); the other is in nlmclnt_setlockargs().
