4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.martinet@xxxxxx> commit 574d356b7a02c7e1b01a1d9cba8a26b3c2888f45 upstream. If the requested msize is too small (either from command line argument or from the server version reply), we won't get any work done. If it's *really* too small, nothing will work, and this got caught by syzbot recently (on a new kmem_cache_create_usercopy() call) Just set a minimum msize to 4k in both code paths, until someone complains they have a use-case for a smaller msize. We need to check in both mount option and server reply individually because the msize for the first version request would be unchecked with just a global check on clnt->msize.
