Testing now with xfstests, which should include fsx with direct
I/O of odd sizes. So far I haven't seen any unexpected behavior.

But I'm not sure what copy you're trying to avoid. This one in
xdr_align_pages() ?

1189         else if (nwords < xdr->nwords) {
1190                 /* Truncate page data and move it into the tail */
1191                 offset = buf->page_len - len;
1192                 copied = xdr_shrink_pagelen(buf, offset);
1193                 trace_rpc_xdr_alignment(xdr, offset, copied);
1194                 xdr->nwords = XDR_QUADLEN(buf->len - cur);
1195         }

We set up the receive buffer already to avoid this copy. It should
rarely, if ever, happen. That's the point of rpc_prepare_reply_pages().
