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.
