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.
