Subject: [GIT PULL] Please pull NFS client bugfixes and updates

Hi Linus,

A few bugfixes and some small sunrpc latency/performance improvements
before the merge window closes:

The following changes since commit e231c6879cfd44e4fffd384bb6dd7d313249a523:

  NFS: Fix a race between mmap() and O_DIRECT (2018-01-28 22:00:15 -0500)

----------------------------------------------------------------
NFS client bugfixes and latency improvements for Linux 4.16

Highlights include:

Stable fixes:
- Fix an incorrect calculation of the RDMA send scatter gather element limit
- Fix an Oops when attempting to free resources after RDMA device removal

Bugfixes:
- SUNRPC: Ensure we always release the TCP socket in a timely fashion when
  the connection is shut down.
- SUNRPC: Don't call __UDPX_INC_STATS() from a preemptible context

Latency/Performance:
- SUNRPC: Queue latency sensitive socket tasks to the less contended
  xprtiod queue
- SUNRPC: Make the xprtiod workqueue unbounded.
- SUNRPC: Make the rpciod workqueue unbounded

----------------------------------------------------------------
