Hi Trond, I took a stab at eliminating the Xcoding macros in fs/nfs/nfs4xdr.c by using generic xdr functions and local helpers that do not rely on hidden side effects such as assigning to a pointer on the stack or returning an error from the calling function. The patches in this series are listed below. Please let me know if this is the direction you were heading and if ok with you I'd be happy to help with moving this mini-project forward.
