NFS: introduce mechanism for tracking NFS client metrics

Add a per-superblock performance counter facility to the NFS client.  This
facility mimics the counters available for block devices and for
networking.  Expose these new counters via the new /proc/self/mountstats
interface.

Thanks to Andrew Morton and Trond Myklebust for their review and comments.

Test plan:
fsx and iozone on UP and SMP systems, with and without pre-emption.  Watch
for memory overwrite bugs, and performance loss (significantly more CPU
required per op).
