    SUNRPC: Address buffer overrun in rpc_uaddr2sockaddr()
    
    The size of buf[] must account for the string termination needed for
    the first strict_strtoul() call.  Introduced in commit a02d6926.
    
    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 .

commit 96d25e532234bec1a1989e6e1baf702d43a78b0d

    NFSv4: Fix a cache validation bug which causes getcwd() to return ENOENT
    
    Changeset a65318bf3afc93ce49227e849d213799b072c5fd (NFSv4: Simplify some
    cache consistency post-op GETATTRs) incorrectly changed the getattr
    bitmap for readdir().
    This causes the readdir() function to fail to return a
    fileid/inode number, which again exposed a bug in the NFS readdir code that
    causes spurious ENOENT errors to appear in applications (see
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14541).
    
    The immediate band aid is to revert the incorrect bitmap change, but more
    long term, we should change the NFS readdir code to cope with the
    fact that NFSv4 servers are not required to support fileids/inode numbers.
