Instead of invoking put_page() one-at-a-time, pass the "response"
portion of rq_pages directly to release_pages() to reduce the number
of times each nfsd thread invokes a page allocator API.
Since svc_xprt_release() is not invoked while a client is waiting
for an RPC Reply, this is not expected to directly impact mean
request latencies on a lightly or moderately loaded server. However
as workload intensity increases, I expect somewhat better
scalability: the same number of server threads should be able to
handle more work.
