Subject: [PATCH] sunrpc: account for xdr->page_base in xdr_alloc_bvec

I've been seeing a regression in mainline (v6.5-rc) kernels where
unaligned reads were returning corrupt data.

9d96acbc7f37 added a routine to allocate and populate a bvec array that
can be used to back an iov_iter. When it does this, it always sets the
offset in the first bvec to zero, even when the xdr->page_base is
non-zero.

The old code in svc_tcp_sendmsg used to account for this, as it was
sending the pages one at a time anyway, but now that we just hand the
iov to the network layer, we need to ensure that the bvecs are properly
initialized.

Fix xdr_alloc_bvec to set the offset in the first bvec to the offset
indicated by xdr->page_base, and then 0 in all subsequent bvecs.

Fixes: 9d96acbc7f37 ("SUNRPC: Add a bvec array to struct xdr_buf for use with iovec_iter()")

NB: This is only lightly tested so far, but it seems to fix the pynfs
regressions I've been seeing.
