nfsd4: "backfill" using write_bytes_to_xdr_buf
Normally xdr encoding proceeds in a single pass from start of a buffer to end, but sometimes we have to write a few bytes to an earlier position. Use write_bytes_to_xdr_buf for these cases rather than saving a pointer to write to. We plan to rewrite xdr_reserve_space to handle encoding across page boundaries using a scratch buffer, and don't want to risk writing to a pointer that was contained in a scratch buffer. Also it will no longer be safe to calculate lengths by subtracting two pointers, so use xdr_buf offsets instead. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
