mainlining shenanigans

The benefit of the xdr_stream helpers is that they transparently handle encoding an XDR data item that crosses page boundaries. Most of the open-coded logic to do that here can be eliminated. A sub-buffer and sub-stream are set up as a sink buffer for the directory entry encoder. As an entry is encoded, it is added to the end of the content in this buffer/stream. The total length of the directory list is tracked in the buffer's @len field. When it comes time to encode the Reply, the sub-buffer is merged into rq_res's page array at the correct place using xdr_write_pages(). Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> |

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.
