SUNRPC: Add a transport-specific private field in rpc_rqst
Currently there's a hidden and indirect mechanism for finding the
rpcrdma_req that goes with an rpc_rqst. It depends on getting from
the rq_buffer pointer in struct rpc_rqst to the struct
rpcrdma_regbuf that controls that buffer, and then to the struct
rpcrdma_req it goes with.
This was done back in the day to avoid the need to add a per-rqst
pointer or to alter the buf_free API when support for RPC-over-RDMA
was introduced.
I'm about to change the way regbuf's work to support larger inline
thresholds. Now is a good time to replace this indirect mechanism
with something that is more straightforward. I guess this should be
considered a clean up.
