NFSD: Fix "start of NFS reply" pointer passed to nfsd_cache_update()
The "statp + 1" pointer that is passed to nfsd_cache_update() is supposed to point to the start of the egress NFS Reply header. In fact, it does point there for AUTH_SYS and RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 requests. But both krb5i and krb5p add fields between the RPC header's accept_stat field and the start of the NFS Reply header. In those cases, "statp + 1" points at the extra fields instead of the Reply. The result is that nfsd_cache_update() caches what looks to the client like garbage. A connection break can occur for a number of reasons, but the most common reason when using krb5i/p is a GSS sequence number window underrun. When an underrun is detected, the server is obliged to drop the RPC and the connection to force a retransmit with a fresh GSS sequence number. The client presents the same XID, it hits in the server's DRC, and the server returns the garbage cache entry. The "statp + 1" argument has been used since the oldest changeset in the kernel history repo, so it has been in nfsd_dispatch() literally since before history began. The problem arose only when the server-side GSS implementation was added twenty years ago.
