Subject: [PATCH 3.16 137/294] nfsd: Limit end of page list when decoding
 NFSv4 WRITE

3.16.50-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

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

commit fc788f64f1f3eb31e87d4f53bcf1ab76590d5838 upstream.

When processing an NFSv4 WRITE operation, argp->end should never
point past the end of the data in the final page of the page list.
Otherwise, nfsd4_decode_compound can walk into uninitialized memory.

More critical, nfsd4_decode_write is failing to increment argp->pagelen
when it increments argp->pagelist.  This can cause later xdr decoders
to assume more data is available than really is, which can cause server
crashes on malformed requests.
