svc_rdma_marshal.c has one remaining exported function --
svc_rdma_xdr_decode_req -- and it has a single call site. Take
the same approach as the sendto path, and move this function
into the source file where it is called.
This is a refactoring change only.

The plan is to replace the local bespoke code that constructs and
posts RDMA Read and Write Work Requests with calls to the rdma_rw
API. This shares code with other RDMA-enabled ULPs that manages the
gory details of buffer registration and posting Work Requests.
Some design notes:
o The structure of RPC-over-RDMA transport headers is flexible,
allowing multiple segments per Reply with arbitrary alignment,
each with a unique R_key. Write and Send WRs continue to be
built and posted in separate code paths. However, one whole
chunk (with one or more RDMA segments apiece) gets exactly
one ib_post_send and one work completion.
o svc_xprt reference counting is modified, since a chain of
rdma_rw_ctx structs generates one completion, no matter how
many Write WRs are posted.
o The current code builds the transport header as it is construct-
ing Write WRs. I've replaced that with marshaling of transport
header data items in a separate step. This is because the exact
structure of client-provided segments may not align with the
components of the server's reply xdr_buf, or the pages in the
page list. Thus parts of each client-provided segment may be
written at different points in the send path.

No HCA or RNIC in the kernel tree requires the use of ALLPHYSICAL.
ALLPHYSICAL advertises in the clear on the network fabric an R_key
that is good for all of the client's memory. No known exploit
exists, but theoretically any user on the server can use that R_key
on the client's QP to read or update any part of the client's memory.
ALLPHYSICAL exposes the client to server bugs, including:
o base/bounds errors causing data outside the i/o buffer to be
accessed
o RDMA access after reply causing data corruption and/or integrity
fail
ALLPHYSICAL can't protect application memory regions from server
update after a local signal or soft timeout has terminated an RPC.
ALLPHYSICAL chunks are no larger than a page. Special cases to
handle small chunks and long chunk lists have been a source of
implementation complexity and bugs.

To support the server-side of an NFSv4.1 backchannel on RDMA
connections, add a transport class that enables backward
direction messages on an existing forward channel connection.

xprtrdma's backward direction send and receive buffers are the same
size as the forechannel's inline threshold, and must be pre-
registered.
The consumer has no control over which receive buffer the adapter
chooses to catch an incoming backwards-direction call. Any receive
buffer can be used for either a forward reply or a backward call.
Thus both types of RPC message must all be the same size.

Bi-directional RPC support means code in svcrdma.ko invokes a bit of
code in xprtrdma.ko, and vice versa. To avoid loader/linker loops,
merge the server and client side modules together into a single
module.
When backchannel capabilities are added, the combined module will
register all needed transport capabilities so that Upper Layer
consumers automatically have everything needed to create a
bi-directional transport connection.
Module aliases are added for backwards compatibility with user
space, which still may expect svcrdma.ko or xprtrdma.ko to be
present.
This commit reverts commit 2e8c12e1b7 ("xprtrdma: add separate
Kconfig options for NFSoRDMA client and server support") and
provides a single CONFIG option for enabling the new module.

Instead of employing switch() statements, let's use the typical
Linux kernel idiom for handling behavioral variation: virtual
functions.
Start by defining a vector of operations for each supported memory
registration mode, and by adding a source file for each mode.

There are two entirely separate modules under xprtrdma/ and there's no
reason that enabling one should automatically enable the other. Add
config options for each one so they can be enabled/disabled separately.
