Anna Schumaker adac9f0ddd NFSv4.2: Rework scratch handling for READ_PLUS (again)
commit 303a780520 upstream.

I found that the read code might send multiple requests using the same
nfs_pgio_header, but nfs4_proc_read_setup() is only called once. This is
how we ended up occasionally double-freeing the scratch buffer, but also
means we set a NULL pointer but non-zero length to the xdr scratch
buffer. This results in an oops the first time decoding needs to copy
something to scratch, which frequently happens when decoding READ_PLUS
hole segments.

I fix this by moving scratch handling into the pageio read code. I
provide a function to allocate scratch space for decoding read replies,
and free the scratch buffer when the nfs_pgio_header is freed.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
