<content type='text'>
The BD xlator was removed some time ago. Remove it from the graph.
We can also remove the caps settings - only the BD xlator
was using it.

Lastly, remove the caps (which only BD was using) and the document
describing the translator.

This reverts commit b87c397091bac6a4a6dec4e45a7671fad4a11770.

There seems to be some performance regression with the patch and hence recommended to have it reverted.

<title>iobuf: Get rid of pre allocated iobuf_pool and use per thread mem pool</title>

<id>b87c397091bac6a4a6dec4e45a7671fad4a11770</id>
<content type='text'>
The current implementation of iobuf_pool has two problems:
- prealloc of 12.5MB memory, this limits the scale factor of the gluster
  processes due to RAM requirements
- lock contention, as the current implementation has one global
  iobuf_pool lock. Credits for debugging and addressing the same goes to
  Krutika Dhananjay &lt;kdhananj@redhat.com&gt;. Issue: #410

Hence changing the iobuf implementation to use per thread mem pool.
This may theoritically appear to cause perf dip as there is no preallocation.
But per thread mem pool will not have significant perf impact as the last
allocated memory is kept alive for subsequent allocs, for some time.
The worst case would be if iobufs requested are of random sizes each time.
The best case is, if we get iobuf request of the same size. From the perf
tests, this patch did not seem to cause any perf decrease.

Note that, with this patch, the rdma performance is going to degrade
drastically. In one of the previous patchsets we had fixes to not
degrade rdma perf, but rdma is not supported and also not tested [1].
Hence the decision was to not have code in rdma that is not tested
and not supported.

<title>coding-standard: memset before string functions similar to sprintf/snprintf etc</title>

String functions like sprintf/snprintf/vprintf etc terminates the string with a
null character. This makes meset redundant and also incurs some performance
penalty.

Also added a comment about using GF_MALLOC instead of GF_CALLOC for allocating
buffer for strings, targeted by such functions.
