svcrdma: Ignore source port when computing DRC hash
The DRC appears to be effectively empty after an RPC/RDMA transport reconnect. The problem is that each connection uses a different source port, which defeats the DRC hash. Clients always have to disconnect before they send retransmissions to reset the connection's credit accounting, thus every retransmit on NFS/RDMA will miss the DRC. An NFS/RDMA client's IP source port is meaningless for RDMA transports. The transport layer typically sets the source port value on the connection to a random ephemeral port. The server already ignores it for the "secure port" check. See commit 16e4d93f6de7 ("NFSD: Ignore client's source port on RDMA transports"). The Linux NFS server's DRC resolves XID collisions from the same source IP address by using the checksum of the first 200 bytes of the RPC call header.
