Subject: rpc: fix huge kmalloc's in gss-proxy
From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 9dfd87da1aeb0fd364167ad199f40fe96a6a87be upstream.
The reply to a gssproxy can include up to NGROUPS_MAX gid's, which will
take up more than a page. We therefore need to allocate an array of
pages to hold the reply instead of trying to allocate a single huge
buffer.
