Hi Neil,

you recently posted a patch that should fix readdir encoding in
nfsd. You say there

	Note that as the offset and whole response is known to be
	4byte-aligned, the offset pointer will never be split over
	two pages.

This is not true. The dirent offset is a 64bit quantity, so it's quite
possible it will be split across the page boundary. I'm working on a
patch...

Olaf
