The length of the GSS MIC token need not be a multiple of four bytes. It is then padded by XDR to a multiple of 4 B, but unwrap_integ_data() would previously only trim mic.len + 4 B. The remaining up to three bytes would then trigger a check in nfs4svc_decode_compoundargs(), leading to a "garbage args" error and mount failure: nfs4svc_decode_compoundargs: compound not properly padded! nfsd: failed to decode arguments! This would prevent older clients using the pre-RFC 4121 MIC format (37-byte MIC including a 9-byte OID) from mounting exports from v3.9+ servers using krb5i. The trimming was introduced by commit 4c190e2f913f ("sunrpc: trim off trailing checksum before returning decrypted or integrity authenticated buffer").
