I don't feel strongly about this.  If you think these is value in these
wrapper functions then I won't argue.  As a general rule I don't like
multiple interfaces that do (much) the same thing as keeping track of
them increases the mental load.

I don't like NFS_CS_LOCAL_IO_CAPABLE.
A use case that I imagine (and a customer does something like this) is an
HA cluster where the NFS server can move from one node to another.  All
the node access the filesystem, most over NFS.  If a server-migration
happens (e.g.  the current server node failed) then the new server node
would suddenly become LOCALIO-capable even though it wasn't at
mount-time.  I would like it to be able to detect this and start doing
localio.

So I don't want NFS_CS_LOCAL_IO_CAPABLE.  I think tracking when the
network connection is re-established is sufficient.
