[PATCH v2 0/4] Fix unwanted memory overwrites

[Chuck Lever <cel@kernel.org>]

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

<rtm@csail.mit.edu> reported some memory overwrites that can be
triggered by NFS client input. I was able to observe overwrites
by enabling KASAN and running his reproducer [1].

NFSD caches COMPOUNDs containing only a single SEQUENCE operation
whether the client requests it to or not, in order to work around a
deficiency in the NFSv4.1 protocol. However, the predicate that
identifies solo SEQUENCE operations was incorrect.

Changes since v1:
* Reordered patches
* Disable caching of solo SEQUENCE operations
* Additional clean up

Chuck Lever (4):
  NFSD: Skip close replay processing if XDR encoding fails
  NFSD: Fix the "is this a solo SEQUENCE" predicate
  NFSD: Do not cache solo SEQUENCE operations
  NFSD: Move nfsd4_cache_this()
