From: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This knob influences the LOCALIO handshake so that it happens
synchronously upon NFS client creation.. which reduces the window of
opportunity for a bunch of IO to flood page cache and send out over to
NFSD before LOCALIO handshake negotiates that the client and server
are local. The knob is:
echo N > /sys/module/nfs/parameters/localio_async_probe
Fixes: 1ff4716f420b ("NFS: always probe for LOCALIO support asynchronously")
