nfsd: dynamically allocate DRC entries
The existing code keeps a fixed-size cache of 1024 entries. This is much too small for a busy server, and wastes memory on an idle one. This patch changes the code to dynamically allocate and free these cache entries. A cap on the number of entries is retained, but it's much larger than the existing value and now scales with the amount of low memory in the machine.
