The client doesn't know whether the server supports OFFLOAD_STATUS
until the first OFFLOAD_STATUS is sent. So at least /one/ of those
waits will be of the timeout variety, no matter what.

We can mitigate the cost of waking up periodically by making
NFS42_COPY_TIMEOUT longer than 7 seconds. That's just a number I
pulled out of the air.

IIUC the wait_for_completion() family of APIs does not sleep at all
if the completion has already been marked "done". So in that case
wfc() should just return a positive number and execution drops into
the "copy complete" code.

The callback reply should just wake the completion, even though
there might no longer be a waiter, and then free the call data. That
seems OK.

I think what I missed is that the call data needs to be cleaned
up when we are sure the CB_OFFLOAD was lost, otherwise it leaks.
Will need to think about that. How is that done if the client
detects a server restart?

Also nfs42_proc_offload_status() needs to distinguish between "still
running," "all done," "bad stateid," and "no answer".
