Certain NFSv4.2/RDMA tests fail with v5.9-rc1. rpcrdma_convert_kvec() runs off the end of the rl_segments array because rq_rcv_buf.tail[0].iov_len holds a very large positive value. The resultant kernel memory corruption is enough to crash the client system. Callers of rpc_prepare_reply_pages() must reserve an extra XDR_UNIT in the maximum decode size for a possible XDR pad of the contents of the xdr_buf's pages. That guarantees the allocated receive buffer will be large enough to accommodate the usual contents plus that XDR pad word. encode_op_hdr() cannot add that extra word. If it does, xdr_inline_pages() underruns the length of the tail iovec.
