The following 6 patches fix nfs41 xdr code
based on the current helpers (over nfs-2.6/nfsv41).

I can squash them into the current patchset
after your cleanup of the xdr macros.

[PATCH 1/6] nfs41: Ignoring impid in decode_exchange_id is missing a READ_BUF
[PATCH 2/6] nfs41: fix Xcode_exchange_id's xdr Xcoding pointer type
[PATCH 3/6] nfs41: get rid of unused struct nfs41_exchange_id_res members
[PATCH 4/6] nfs41: fix Xcode_create_session's xdr Xcoding pointer type
[PATCH 5/6] nfs41: refactor decoding of channel attributes
[PATCH 6/6] nfs41: fix encode_destroy_session's xdr Xcoding pointer type
