Chuck Lever 5ab8142839 xprtrdma: Chunk list encoders no longer share one rl_segments array
Currently, all three chunk list encoders each use a portion of the
one rl_segments array in rpcrdma_req. This is because the MWs for
each chunk list were preserved in rl_segments so that ro_unmap could
find and invalidate them after the RPC was complete.

However, now that MWs are placed on a per-req linked list as they
are registered, there is no longer any information in rpcrdma_mr_seg
that is shared between ro_map and ro_unmap_{sync,safe}, and thus
nothing in rl_segments needs to be preserved after
rpcrdma_marshal_req is complete.

Thus the rl_segments array can be used now just for the needs of
each rpcrdma_convert_iovs call. Once each chunk list is encoded, the
next chunk list encoder is free to re-use all of rl_segments.

This means all three chunk lists in one RPC request can now each
encode a full size data payload with no increase in the size of
rl_segments.

This is a key requirement for Kerberos support, since both the Call
and Reply for a single RPC transaction are conveyed via Long
messages (RDMA Read/Write). Both can be large.
