[PATCH] RPC: separate TCP and UDP socket write paths

Split the RPC client's main socket write path into a TCP version and a UDP
version to eliminate another dependency on the "xprt->stream" variable.

Compiler optimization removes unneeded code from xs_sendpages, as this
function is now called with some constant arguments.

We can now cleanly perform transport protocol-specific return code testing
and error recovery in each path.

Test-plan:
Millions of fsx operations. Performance characterization such as
"sio" or "iozone". Examine oprofile results for any changes before and
after this patch is applied.
