It worked well without this, so I just removed it and didn’t investigate why. I’m guessing that xdr->buf>page_len is being set incorrectly by the code that does the page allocation and/or that it is failing to update xdr->buf->len and/or xdr->buf->buflen. We really do need the xdr_enter_page() here, or the acl bitmap + data won’t be aligned properly on the page boundary.
