Subject: [PATCH v1 0/2] add support for IO_ADVISE

Adds support for using the NFS v4.2 operation IO_ADVISE to
send client I/O access pattern hints to the server.

There is a one-to-one correspondence between the advice
(POSIX_FADV_*) given in fadvise64() and the bitmap mask sent
to the server. Any other advice given, results in just
calling generic_fadvise().

The bitmap mask given by the server reply is just ignored
since the fadvise64() returns 0 on success. If server
replies with more than one bitmap word, only the first word
is stored on the nfs42_io_advise_res struct and all other
words are ignored.

Added trace point (nfs4_io_advise) for this operation:
nfs4_io_advise: error=0 (OK) fileid=00:32:4217220 \
fhandle=0x4a271991 stateid=0:0x30b83748 offset=0 \
count=200 arg_hints=SEQUENTIAL res_hints=SEQUENTIAL
