Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: Address buffer overrun in rpc_uaddr2sockaddr()

The size of buf[] must account for the string termination needed for
the first strict_strtoul() call.

Fábio Olivé Leite points out that strict_strtoul() requires _either_
'\n\0' _or_ '\0' termination, so use the simpler '\0' here instead.

See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14546 .

Would you please test this fix to see if it addresses the problem?
