SCSI implementation experience has shown that an interrupt-only
COPY offload implementation is not reliable. There are too many
common scenarios where the client can miss the completion interrupt
(in our case, this is an NFSv4.2 CB_OFFLOAD callback).

Therefore, a polling mechanism is needed. The NFSv4.2 protocol
provides one in the form of the its OFFLOAD_STATUS operation. Linux
NFSD implements OFFLOAD_STATUS already. This series adds a Linux NFS
client implementation of the OFFLOAD_STATUS operation that can query
the state of a background COPY on the server.

These patches are also available here:

Changes since v3:
- Change to fixed lease_time/2 timeout before posting OFFLOAD_STATUS
- Check if CB_OFFLOAD arrived if OFFLOAD_STATUS returned BAD_STATEID
- Added Olga's R-b and T-b tags
