This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled nfsd4: minor NFSv2/v3 write decoding cleanup to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: nfsd4-minor-nfsv2-v3-write-decoding-cleanup.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From db44bac41bbfc0c0d9dd943092d8bded3c9db19b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 25 Apr 2017 16:21:34 -0400 Subject: nfsd4: minor NFSv2/v3 write decoding cleanup From: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> commit db44bac41bbfc0c0d9dd943092d8bded3c9db19b upstream. Use a couple shortcuts that will simplify a following bugfix. (Minor backporting required to account for a change from f34b95689d2c "The NFSv2/NFSv3 server does not handle zero length WRITE requests correctly".) Signed-off-by: J.
