This document gives an overview of the LOCALIO auxiliary RPC protocol
added to the Linux NFS client and server to allow them to reliably
handshake to determine if they are on the same host.
Once an NFS client and server handshake as "local", the client will
bypass the network RPC protocol for read, write and commit operations.
Due to this XDR and RPC bypass, these operations will operate faster.
