sunrpc: Disable splice for krb5i
Running a multi-threaded 8KB fio test (70/30 mix), three or four out
of twelve of the jobs fail when using krb5i. The failure is an EIO
on a read.
Troubleshooting confirmed the EIO results when the client fails to
verify the MIC of an NFS READ reply. Bruce suggested the problem
could be due to the data payload changing between the time the
reply's MIC was computed on the server and the time the reply was
actually sent.
krb5p gets around this problem by disabling RQ_SPLICE_OK. Use the
same mechanism for krb5i RPCs.
"iozone -i0 -i1 -s128m -y1k -az -I", export is tmpfs, mount is
sec=krb5i,vers=3,proto=rdma. The important numbers are the
read / reread column.
Here's without the RQ_SPLICE_OK patch:

And here's with it:

I would say that there is not much difference in this test.
For good measure, here's the same test with sec=krb5p:
