3.5.7.27 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 365da4adebb1c012febf81019ad3dc5bb52e2a13 upstream. This fixes a regression from 247500820ebd02ad87525db5d9b199e5b66f6636 "nfsd4: fix decoding of compounds across page boundaries". The previous code was correct: argp->pagelist is initialized in nfs4svc_deocde_compoundargs to rqstp->rq_arg.pages, and is therefore a pointer to the page *after* the page we are currently decoding. The reason that patch nevertheless fixed a problem with decoding compounds containing write was a bug in the write decoding introduced by 5a80a54d21c96590d013378d8c5f65f879451ab4 "nfsd4: reorganize write decoding", after which write decoding no longer adhered to the rule that argp->pagelist point to the next page.
