NFSoRDMA Client Fixes for Linux 5.7

Bugfixes:
- Restore wake-up-all to rpcrdma_cm_event_handler()
  - Otherwise the client won't respond to server disconnect requests
- Fix tracepoint use-after-free race
- Fix usage of xdr_stream_encode_item_{present, absent}
  - These functions return a size on success, and not 0

<title>NFSv4.1: fix handling of backchannel binding in BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION</title>

<id>dff58530c4ca8ce7ee5a74db431c6e35362cf682</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, if the client sends BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION with
NFS4_CDFC4_FORE_OR_BOTH but only gets NFS4_CDFS4_FORE back it ignores
that it wasn't able to enable a backchannel.

To make sure, the client sends BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION as the first
operation on the connections (ie., no other session compounds haven't
been sent before), and if the client's request to bind the backchannel
is not satisfied, then reset the connection and retry.

The rpciod workqueue is on the write-out path for freeing dirty memory,
so it is important that it never block waiting for memory to be
allocated - this can lead to a deadlock.

rpc_execute() - which is often called by an rpciod work item - calls
rcp_task_release_client() which can lead to rpc_free_client().

rpc_free_client() makes two calls which could potentially block wating
for memory allocation.

rpc_clnt_debugfs_unregister() calls into debugfs and will block while
any of the debugfs files are being accessed.  In particular it can block
while any of the 'open' methods are being called and all of these use
malloc for one thing or another.  So this can deadlock if the memory
allocation waits for NFS to complete some writes via rpciod.

rpc_clnt_remove_pipedir() can take the inode_lock() and while it isn't
obvious that memory allocations can happen while the lock it held, it is
safer to assume they might and to not let rpciod call
rpc_clnt_remove_pipedir().

So this patch moves these two calls (together with the final kfree() and
rpciod_down()) into a work-item to be run from the system work-queue.
rpciod can continue its important work, and the final stages of the free
can happen whenever they happen.

I have seen this deadlock on a 4.12 based kernel where debugfs used
synchronize_srcu() when removing objects.  synchronize_srcu() requires a
workqueue and there were no free workther threads and none could be
allocated.  While debugsfs no longer uses SRCU, I believe the deadlock
is still possible.

DCC_INDEPENDENT_128B is needed for displayble DCC on gfx10.
SCANOUT is not needed by the kernel, but Mesa uses it.
