[PATCH] SUNRPC: Simplify the SVC dispatch code path

[PATCH] SUNRPC: Simplify the SVC dispatch code path

[Chuck Lever]

Micro-optimization: The last user of the generic SVC dispatch code
path has been removed, so svc_process_common() can be simplified.
This declutters the hot path so that the by-far most common case
(a dispatch function exists) is made the /only/ path.
