Here's the patch.  You probably don't want to do it the same way, but
the intent is to delay the allocation of the svc_rqst structure until
the nfsd is running on the correct cpu so that the allocation comes from
the correct local memory on NUMA systems.  Absent the patch, most of the
nfsds spend a lot of time updating remote memory allocated on node0.
