The long-term purpose is to convert the NFSD XDR encoder and decoder functions to use the struct xdr_stream API. This is a refactor and clean-up with few or no changes in behavior expected, but there are some long-term benefits: - More robust input sanitization in the NFSD decoders. - Help make it possible to use common kernel library functions with XDR stream APIs (for example, GSS-API). - Align the structure of the source code with the RFCs so it is easier to learn, verify, and maintain our XDR implementation. - Removal of more than a hundred hidden dprintk() call sites. - Removal of as much explicit manipulation of pages as possible to help make the eventual transition to xdr->bvecs smoother. The current series focuses on NFSv2 and NFSv3 decoder changes. Please review and comment!
