nfs_common: prepare for the NFS client to use nfsd_file for LOCALIO

The next commit will introduce nfsd_open_local_fh() which returns an
nfsd_file structure.  This commit exposes LOCALIO's required NFSD
symbols to the NFS client:

- Make nfsd_open_local_fh() symbol and other required NFSD symbols
  available to NFS in a global 'nfs_to' nfsd_localio_operations
  struct (global access suggested by Trond, nfsd_localio_operations
  suggested by NeilBrown).  The next commit will also introduce
  nfsd_localio_ops_init() that init_nfsd() will call to initialize
  'nfs_to'.

- Introduce nfsd_file_file() that provides access to nfsd_file's
  backing file.  Keeps nfsd_file structure opaque to NFS client (as
  suggested by Jeff Layton).

- Introduce nfsd_file_put_local() that will put the reference to the
  nfsd_file's associated nn->nfsd_serv and then put the reference to
  the nfsd_file (as suggested by NeilBrown).

+ * The NFS LOCALIO code needs to call into NFSD using various symbols,

+ * module always depend on the NFSD module.
+ *
+ * 'nfs_to' provides NFS access to NFSD functions needed for LOCALIO,
+ * its lifetime is tightly coupled to the NFSD module and will always
+ * be available to NFS LOCALIO because any successful client<->server
+ * LOCALIO handshake results in a reference on the NFSD module (above),
+ * so NFS implicitly holds a reference to the NFSD module and its
+ * functions in the 'nfs_to' nfsd_localio_operations cannot disappear.
+ *
+ * If the last NFS client using LOCALIO disconnects (and its reference
+ * on NFSD dropped) then NFSD could be unloaded, resulting in 'nfs_to'
+ * functions being invalid pointers. But if NFSD isn't loaded then NFS
+ * will not be able to handshake with NFSD and will have no cause to
+ * try to call 'nfs_to' function pointers. If/when NFSD is reloaded it
+ * will reinitialize the 'nfs_to' function pointers and make LOCALIO
+ * possible.
