Ensure that stream-based argument decoding can't go past the actual end of the receive buffer. xdr_init_decode's calculation of the value of xdr->end over-estimates the end of the buffer because the Linux kernel RPC server code does not remove the size of the RPC header from rqstp->rq_arg before calling the upper layer's dispatcher. The server-side still uses the svc_getnl() macros to decode the RPC call header. These macros reduce the length of the head iov but do not update the total length of the message in the buffer (buf->len). A proper fix for this would be to replace the use of svc_getnl() and friends in the RPC header decoder, but that would be a large and invasive change that would be difficult to backport.
