It was reported that NFS client mounts of AWS Elastic File System
(EFS) volumes is slow, this is because the AWS firewall disallows
LOCALIO (because it doesn't consider the use of NFS_LOCALIO_PROGRAM
valid), see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2335129
Switch to performing the LOCALIO probe asynchronously to address the
potential for the NFS LOCALIO protocol being disallowed and/or slowed
by the remote server's response.
While at it, fix nfs_local_probe_async() to always take/put a
reference on the nfs_client that is using the LOCALIO protocol.
Also, unexport the nfs_local_probe() symbol and make it private to
fs/nfs/localio.c
This change has the side-effect of initially issuing reads, writes and
commits over the wire via SUNRPC until the LOCALIO probe completes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
