We might need a different fixes tag here. While I think xdr_alloc_bvec
ought to be where we account for this, the actual patch that broke
things is this one:

    5df5dd03a8f7 sunrpc: Use sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES) rather then sendpage

The old code accounted for the fact that the first bvec always had a zero offset.
