Thanks!  I'll send a fixed version
of this patch and also look into the rest of the xdr code.

Ouch, of course.  What did I smoke that day?

Which p?
It takes care of argp->p, not the local 'p' variable, doesn't it.
p += 2 has an equivalent side effect on 'p' as doing READ64.
I can do "p = argp;" instead though to reset 'p' onto
the current xdr stream "head".

I completely agree.  We're dealing with bits and bytes (or 32 bit words
actually) at the wrong abstraction layer.

Why?
READ_BUF increments argp->p in XDR_QUADLEN(dummy) words
and the local p should be adjusted correspondingly.
This used to happen as the side effect of COPY_MEM.

Ditto

and here too...

BTW, Calling READ_BUF here was missing before, so this could be put
in a patch of its own, and adjusting p is not really necessary since
we're about to exit the function...

In any case, are we going to squash these fixes into the respective
queued patch, or would like to start accumulating the patches for
2.6.31 without rebasing?
