[Devel] [RFC PATCH 2/2] SUNRPC: connect local transports with unix_stream_connect_root() helper

Today, there is a problem in connecting of local SUNRPC thansports. These
transports uses UNIX sockets and connection itself is done by rpciod
workqueue.
But UNIX sockets lookup is done in context of process file system root. I.e.
all local thunsports are connecting in rpciod context.
This works nice until we will try to mount NFS from process with other root -
for example in container. This container can have it's own (nested) root and
rcpbind process, listening on it's own unix sockets. But NFS mount attempt in
this container will register new service (Lockd for example) in global rpcbind
- not containers's one.
This patch solves the problem by using special helper
unix_stream_connect_root(), which lookup socket file starting from passed
root.
