We've found that there are cases where a transport disconnection
results in the loss of callback RPCs. NFS servers typically do not
retransmit callback operations after a disconnect.

This can be a problem for the Linux NFS client's current
implementation of asynchronous COPY, which waits indefinitely for a
CB_OFFLOAD callback. If a transport disconnect occurs while an async
COPY is running, there's a good chance the client will never get the
completing CB_OFFLOAD.

Fix this by implementing the OFFLOAD_STATUS operation so that the
Linux NFS client can probe the NFS server if it doesn't see a
CB_OFFLOAD in a reasonable amount of time.

This patch implements a simplistic check. As future work, the client
might also be able to detect whether there is no forward progress on
the request asynchronous COPY operation, and CANCEL it.
