XDR requires 4-byte alignment; nfs4d READLINK reply writes out the padding,
but truncates the packet to the padding-less size.

Fix by taking the padding into consideration when truncating the packet.

Ping.  I should have mentioned that without this, readlink() returns an 
I/O error on the client.

Yes, I got
[root@localhost ~]# ll /mnt/
ls: cannot read symbolic link /mnt/test: Input/output error
total 4
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  0 Jun 14 01:21 123456
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root  6 Jul  2 03:33 test
drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root  0 Jul  2 23:50 tmp
drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 60 Jul  2 23:44 tree
[root@localhost ~]# 

It's introduced by commit 476a7b1f4b2c (nfsd4: don't treat readlink like a zero-copy operation).

NFSD uses (XDR_QUADLEN(maxcount) << 2)) usually.
Anyway, it's a nice fix.

Thanks, queueing up for 3.16.

Eh, I didn't know about ALIGN()--I think I prefer it.

Thanks!  I've also added your symptoms and the problematic commit to the
changelog.
