Ok. I've already done the receive side code changes to handle ext_pgs mbufs
in the krpc/nfs code, so if it becomes easier/more efficient to put the receive
data in ext_pgs mbufs, that can be handled. (Someday there may be net
interfaces that perform better using ext_pgs mbufs?)

Any non-data records that need to be handled by OpenSSL in userspace can
be passed up/handled by the daemons, similar to SSL_connect()/SSL_accept().

Thanks for the info John, rick
