[LU-12756] Refactor lnet_select_pathway and lnet_peer_ni ref counting

• Type: Improvement
• Resolution: Unresolved
• Priority: Minor
• Assignee: Chris Horn

Description

lnet_select_pathway() contains a fair amount of duplicated code. I took a stab at refactoring this function and I believe I have a functionally equivalent implementation with about half as much code.

During that process I noted that the lnet_nid2peerni_locked() function takes a ref on the lnet_peer_ni
object that it returns, however most callers of this function do not need this reference as they hold a net lock when referencing the lnet_peer_ni. So some additonal code removal is possible here as well.
