Flexfilelayout supports data servers which talk NFS v3 and v4.{0,1,2}.
However, this code path is disabled and v3 only servers are accepted.
This change removes this limitation.

this fix aims to fix dereferencing of a mirror in an error state when MDS

<title>pNFS/flexfiles: never nfs4_mark_deviceid_unavailable</title>

<id>da066f3f039eba3e72e97b2ccad0dd8b45ba84bd</id>
<content type='text'>
The flexfiles layout should never mark a device unavailable.

Move nfs4_mark_deviceid_unavailable out of nfs4_pnfs_ds_connect and call
directly from files layout where it's still needed.

The flexfiles driver still handles marked devices in error paths, but will
now print a rate limited warning.

The flexfiles layout should never mark a device unavailable.

Move nfs4_mark_deviceid_unavailable out of nfs4_pnfs_ds_connect and call
directly from files layout where it's still needed.

The flexfiles driver still handles marked devices in error paths, but will
now print a rate limited warning.

The nfs4_pnfs_ds_connect path can call rpc_create which can fail or it
can wait on another context to reach the same failure.

This checks that the rpc_create succeeded and returns the error to the
caller.

When an error is returned, both the files and flexfiles layouts will return
NULL from _prepare_ds(). The flexfiles layout will also return the layout
with the error NFS4ERR_NXIO.

Instead of marking a device inactive, remove it from the cache entirely.

Flexfiles has a way to report errors back to the server, so we don't want
to stop devices from being tried again for 120 seconds.

<title>pNFS/flexfiles: Fix a deadlock on LAYOUTGET</title>

<content type='text'>
  We encountered a deadlock where the SEQUENCE that accompanied the
LAYOUTGET triggered a session drain, while ff_layout_alloc_lseg
triggered a GETDEVICEINFO.  The GETDEVICEINFO hung waiting for the
session drain, while the LAYOUTGET held the slot waiting for
alloc_lseg to finish.
  Avoid this by moving the call to nfs4_find_get_deviceid out of
ff_layout_alloc_lseg and into nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds.

Add the layout error payload to the flexfiles layoutreturn private
data, and set up the encoding mechanisms. This is a refactoring in
preparation for adding the layout iostats payload.
