sunrpc: Change rpc_print_iostats to rpc_clnt_show_stats and handle rpc_clnt clones
The existing rpc_print_iostats has a few shortcomings. First, the naming is not consistent with other functions in the kernel that display stats. Second, it is really displaying stats for an rpc_clnt structure as it displays both xprt stats and per-op stats. Third, it does not handle rpc_clnt clones, which is important for the one in-kernel tree caller of this function, the NFS client's nfs_show_stats function. Fix all of the above by renaming the rpc_print_iostats to rpc_clnt_show_stats and looping through any rpc_clnt clones via cl_parent. Once this interface is fixed, this addresses a problem with NFSv4. Before this patch, the /proc/self/mountstats always showed incorrect counts for NFSv4 lease and session related opcodes such as SEQUENCE, RENEW, SETCLIENTID, CREATE_SESSION, etc. These counts were always 0 even though many ops would go over the wire. The reason for this is there are multiple rpc_clnt structures allocated for any given NFSv4 mount, and inside nfs_show_stats() we callled into rpc_print_iostats() which only handled one of them, nfs_server->client. Fix these counts by calling sunrpc's new rpc_clnt_show_stats() function, which handles cloned rpc_clnt structs and prints the stats together. Note that one side-effect of the above is that multiple mounts from the same NFS server will show identical counts in the above ops due to the fact the one rpc_clnt (representing the NFSv4 client state) is shared across mounts.
