Ok, here is a patch that makes nfsd use splice instead of sendfile.
It appears to both compile and work.
Some observations:
- __splice_from_pipe wants a "struct file*" and I wanted to pass a
"struct svcrqst *". Maybe it should take a void * ?
- It also wants a *ppos which I had no use for.. It that really
need? Cannot &file->f_pos be used?
- I copied do_splice_to from splice.c as it wasn't exported, and
then found I couldn't compile because rw_verify_area wasn't
exported. As nfsd doesn't need that (we never export
mandatory-locking files) I just remove it and some other cruft
that I didn't need.... Not sure if that was the best approach.
- I needed to export alloc_pipe_info. Maybe there should be a
get_current_pipe instead which does the alloc if needed.
- I would much rather have something like free_pipe_info exported
than open code it in do_splice_read (which is based heavily on
do_splice_direct).

-------------------------------
Replace ->sendfile with ->splice_read
Apparently ->sendfile is going away, so change nfsd to use ->splice_read
to get pages for a file.
