In doing this, you are assuming that DSes are not shared among multiple
filesystems or MDSes (i.e. that each DS is used by a single struct
nfs_server). For something like a NetApp filer in c-mode, that is
clearly not a valid assumption.

> I do have an implementation that doesn't need to walk the deviceid list by allowing a shared rpc_iostats struct between multiple rpc_clients (in addition to the current rpc_iostats structure), but that required adding locking and reference counting -- all for printing stats (obviously not what we want).

This might be more in line with what we want. Note that it should be
easy to clone an rpc_client and then replace its rpc_iostats struct. I
don't think that needs any extra locking. We're already ignoring locking
here between different rpc_tasks, so throwing in different rpc_clients
to the mix will make no difference.
