PATCH 1/1 NFSD: Fix bad checking of space for padding in splice read

Fix commit dc97618ddd (nfsd4: separate splice and readv cases). xdr->end and xdr->p are type of __be32 *, so padding needs one here.

Fix commit dc97618ddd (nfsd4: separate splice and readv cases). xdr->end and xdr->p are type of __be32 *, so padding needs one here.

I agree with the patch, but not the changelog.

The problem here is that xdr->p isn't that those are __be32 *'s, but that xdr->p has already advanced past the eof and the count, right?

Applying with an updated changelog.

(And applying for 3.17 (not 3.16) as this looks hard to hit.)
