"panic in 8.3-PRERELEASE" on Feb. 22, 2012. This panic was caused
by use of a mix of tsleep() and msleep() calls on the same event
in the new NFS server DRC code. It did "mtx_unlock(); tsleep();"
in two places, which kib@ noted introduced a slight risk that the
wakeup() would occur before the tsleep(), resulting in a 10sec
delay before waking up. This patch fixes the problem by replacing
"mtx_unlock(); tsleep();" with mtx_sleep(..PDROP..). It also
changes a nfsmsleep() call to mtx_sleep() so that the code uses
mtx_sleep() consistently within the file.

Isilon has the concept of an in-memory exit-code ring that saves the last exit
code of a function and allows for stack tracing. This is very helpful when
debugging tough issues.
This patch is essentially a no-op for BSD at this point, until we upstream
the dexitcode logic itself. The patch adds DEXITCODE calls to every NFS
function that returns an errno error code. A number of code paths were also
reorganized to have single exit paths, to reduce code duplication.

This is believed to fix a hung server that was reported

"New NFS server stress test hang", where all the threads
were waiting for the RC_LOCKED flag to clear.

support for NFSv4 as well as NFSv2 and 3.
It lives in 3 subdirs under sys/fs:
nfs - functions that are common to the client and server
nfsclient - a mutation of sys/nfsclient that call generic functions
to do RPCs and handle state. As such, it retains the
buffer cache handling characteristics and vnode semantics that
are found in sys/nfsclient, for the most part.
nfsserver - the server. It includes a DRC designed specifically for
NFSv4, that is used instead of the generic DRC in sys/rpc.
The build glue will be checked in later, so at this point, it
consists of 3 new subdirs that should not affect kernel building.
