...and here is an update which makes the whole process transparent to
the decoder. It basically teaches xdr_inline_decode() how to switch
buffers when it hits the end of the current iovec and/or page.

Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Don't use vm_map_ram() in readdir
vm_map_ram() is not available on NOMMU platforms, and causes trouble
on incoherrent architectures such as ARM when we access the page data
through both the direct and the virtual mapping.
The alternative is to use the direct mapping to access page data
for the case when we are not crossing a page boundary, but to copy
the data into a linear scratch buffer when we are accessing data
that spans page boundaries.
