Sometimes it's important to know the exact RPC retransmit settings the
kernel is using for an NFS mount point. Add this facility to the NFS
client's show_options method.
Test plan:
Set various retransmit settings via the mount command, and check that the
settings are reflected in /proc/mounts.

Create a new file under /proc/self, called mountstats, where mounted file
systems can export information (configuration options, performance counters,
and so on). Use a mechanism similar to /proc/mounts and s_ops->show_options.
This mechanism does not violate namespace security, and is safe to use while
other processes are unmounting file systems.
Thanks to Mike Waychison for his review and comments.
Test-plan:
Test concurrent mount/unmount operations while cat'ing /proc/self/mountstats.

Fix it so that it tries at least once.

I've been reading through fs/nfs/write.c trying to track down a bug
that seems to be related to pages loosing a refcount and getting
freed too early (you interested in detail??) and I spotted a little
bug which the following patch should fix.

Currently, there is no serialisation between NFS asynchronous writebacks
and truncation at the page level due to the fact that nfs_sync_inode()
cannot lock the pages that it is about to write out.
This means that it is possible to be flushing out data (and calling something
like set_page_writeback()) while the page cache is busy evicting the page.
Oops...
Use the hooks provided in try_to_release_page() to ensure that dirty pages
are always written back to storage before we evict them.

The nfs_open_context may live longer than the file descriptor that spawned
it, so it needs to carry a reference to the vfsmount. If not, then
generic_shutdown_super() may end up being called before reads and writes
have been flushed out.
Make a couple of functions static while we're at it...

A user can use nfsservctl() to spam the logs.
This can happen because the arguments to the nfsservctl() system call are
versioned. This is a good thing. However, when a bad version is detected,
the kernel prints a message and then returns an error.
