this is unsigned.

This is subject to multiplication overflow.  If it's a privileged operation
and isn't dependent on stuff coming in over the wire then ok..

This call to nfsd4_fslocs_free() can end up kfreeing members of
fsloc->locations[] which haven't been initialised here.  Are we sure the
caller set them all to zero?

static inline

This has a different prototype from the other version of fsloc_parse()

This ain't C++ - function arguments need identifiers as well as types.

Someone needs to read Documentation/SubmitChecklist..
