The kernel sometimes makes RPC calls to services that aren't running. Because the kernel's RPC client always assumes the hard retry semantic when reconnecting a connection-oriented RPC transport, the underlying reconnect logic takes a long while to time out, even though the remote may have responded immediately with ECONNREFUSED. In certain cases, like upcalls to our local rpcbind daemon, or for NFS mount requests, we'd like the kernel to fail immediately if the remote service isn't reachable. This allows another transport to be tried immediately, or the pending request can be abandoned quickly. Introduce a per-request flag which controls how call_transmit_status() behaves when request transmission fails because the server cannot be reached. We don't want soft connection semantics to apply to other errors. The default case of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() no longer falls through; the fall through code is copied to the default case, and a "break;" is added. The transport's connection re-establishment timeout is also ignored for such requests. We want the request to fail immediately, so the reconnect delay is skipped. Additionally, we don't want a connect failure here to further increase the reconnect timeout value, since this request will not be retried.
