The server rdma_read_chunk_lcl() and rdma_read_chunk_frmr() functions
were not taking into account the initial page_offset when determining
the rdma read length.  This resulted in a read who's starting address
and length exceeded the base/bounds of the frmr.

Most work loads don't tickle this bug apparently, but one test hit it
every time: building the linux kernel on a 16 core node with 'make -j
16 O=/mnt/0' where /mnt/0 is a ramdisk mounted via NFSRDMA.

This bug seems to only be tripped with devices having small fastreg page
list depths.  I didn't see it with mlx4, for instance.

Hey Bruce, can this make 4.3-rc? Also, what do you think about pushing it to stable?

Thanks,

Steve.
