SUNRPC: Fix svcauth_gss_proxy_init()
gss_read_proxy_verf() assumes things about the XDR buffer containing the RPC Call that are not true for buffers generated by svc_rdma_recv(). RDMA's buffers look more like what the upper layer generates for sending: head is a kmalloc'd buffer; it does not point to a page whose contents are contiguous with the first page in the buffers' page array. The result is that ACCEPT_SEC_CONTEXT via RPC/RDMA has stopped working on Linux NFS servers that use gssproxy. This does not affect clients that use only TCP to send their ACCEPT_SEC_CONTEXT operation (that's all Linux clients). Other clients, like Solaris NFS clients, send ACCEPT_SEC_CONTEXT on the same transport as they send all other NFS operations. Such clients can send ACCEPT_SEC_CONTEXT via RPC/RDMA. I thought I had found every direct reference in the server RPC code to the rqstp->rq_pages field. Bug found at the 2019 Westford NFS bake-a-thon.
