f895b252d4 sunrpc: eliminate RPC_DEBUG
It's always set to whatever CONFIG_SUNRPC_DEBUG is, so just use that.

18c01ab302 nfsd: allow turning off nfsv3 readdir_plus
One of our customer's application only needs file names, not file
attributes. With directories having 10K+ inodes (assuming buffer cache
has directory blocks cached having file names, but inode cache is
limited and hence need eviction of older cached inodes), older inodes
are evicted periodically. So if they keep on doing readdir(2) from NSF
client on multiple directories, some directory's files are periodically
removed from inode cache and hence new readdir(2) on same directory
requires disk access to bring back inodes again to inode cache.

As READDIRPLUS request fetches attributes also, doing getattr on each
file on server, it causes unnecessary disk accesses. If READDIRPLUS on
NFS client is returned with -ENOTSUPP, NFS client uses READDIR request
which just gets the names of the files in a directory, not attributes,
hence avoiding disk accesses on server.

There's already a corresponding client-side mount option, but an export
option reduces the need for configuration across multiple clients.

This flag affects NFSv3 only.  If it turns out it's needed for NFSv4 as
well then we may have to figure out how to extend the behavior to NFSv4,
but it's not currently obvious how to do that.

5409e46f1b nfsd: clean up fh_auth usage
Use fh_fsid when reffering to the fsid part of the filehandle.  The
variable length auth field envisioned in nfsfh wasn't ever implemented.
Also clean up some lose ends around this and document the file handle
format better.

Btw, why do we even export nfsfh.h to userspace?  The file handle very
much is kernel private, and nothing in nfs-utils include the header
either.
