3.2.84-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 0533b13072f4bf35738290d2cf9e299c7bc6c42a upstream. If an RPC program does not set vs_dispatch and pc_func() returns rpc_drop_reply, the server sends a reply anyway containing a single word containing the value RPC_DROP_REPLY (in network byte-order, of course). This is a nonsense RPC message.
