nfs: enable swap on NFS

Implement the new swapfile a_ops for NFS and hook up ->direct_IO.  This
will set the NFS socket to SOCK_MEMALLOC and run socket reconnect under
PF_MEMALLOC as well as reset SOCK_MEMALLOC before engaging the protocol
->connect() method.

PF_MEMALLOC should allow the allocation of struct socket and related
objects and the early (re)setting of SOCK_MEMALLOC should allow us to
receive the packets required for the TCP connection buildup.

[jlayton@redhat.com: Restore PF_MEMALLOC task flags in all cases]
[dfeng@redhat.com: Fix handling of multiple swap files]
[a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl: Original patch]
