Subject: [PATCH 0/7] NFS: Add support for the v4.2 READ_PLUS operation

These patches add client support for the READ_PLUS operation, which
breaks read requests into several "data" and "hole" segments when
replying to the client. I also add a "noreadplus" mount option to allow
users to disable the new operation if it becomes a problem, similar to
the "nordirplus" mount option that we already have.

Here are the results of some performance tests I ran on Netapp lab
machines. I tested by reading various 2G files from a few different
undelying filesystems and across several NFS versions. I used the
`vmtouch` utility to make sure files were only cached when we wanted
them to be. In addition to 100% data and 100% hole cases, I also tested
with files that alternate between data and hole segments. These files
have either 4K, 8K, 16K, or 32K segment sizes and start with either data
or hole segments. So the file mixed-4d has a 4K segment size beginning
with a data segment, but mixed-32h hase 32K segments beginning with a
hole. The units are in seconds, with the first number for each NFS
version being the uncached read time and the second number is for when
the file is cached on the server.
