2.6.37-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ [This needs to be applied to 2.6.37 only. The bug in question was inadvertently fixed by a series of cleanups in 2.6.38, but the patches in question are too large to be backported. This patch is a minimal fix that serves the same purpose.] When we decode a filename followed by an 8-byte cookie, we need to consider the fact that the filename and cookie are 32-bit word aligned. Presently, we may end up copying insufficient amounts of data when xdr_inline_decode() needs to invoke xdr_copy_to_scratch to deal with a page boundary. The following patch fixes the issue by first decoding the filename, and then decoding the cookie.
