Subject: [PATCH 4.18 128/171] sunrpc: correct the computation for page_ptr when truncating

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Frank Sorenson <sorenson@...hat.com>

commit 5d7a5bcb67c70cbc904057ef52d3fcfeb24420bb upstream.

When truncating the encode buffer, the page_ptr is getting
advanced, causing the next page to be skipped while encoding.
The page is still included in the response, so the response
contains a page of bogus data.

We need to adjust the page_ptr backwards to ensure we encode
the next page into the correct place.

We saw this triggered when concurrent directory modifications caused
nfsd4_encode_direct_fattr() to return nfserr_noent, and the resulting
call to xdr_truncate_encode() corrupted the READDIR reply.
