Subject: [RFC PATCH 4/11] relay - Add reserved param to switch-subbuf, in
	preparation for non-pad write/reserve.

Add reserved param to switch-subbuf, in preparation for non-pad write/reserve.

Because a write/reserve can now cross sub-buffer boundaries, we use
the length returned as a remainder for the new sub-buffer, and use the
reserved param to return a pointer to the reserved space, or NULL if
it couldn't be reserved.  This patch also changes write/reserve to
preserve their current behavior despite that change.  This all goes
away in a future patch, but is here now so things don't break.

Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <zanussi@...cast.net>
