<title>SUNRPC: Parametrize how much of argsize should be zeroed</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, SUNRPC clears the whole of .pc_argsize before processing
each incoming RPC transaction. Add an extra parameter to struct
svc_procedure to enable upper layers to reduce the amount of each
operation's argument structure that is zeroed by SUNRPC.

The size of struct nfsd4_compoundargs, in particular, is a lot to
clear on each incoming RPC Call. A subsequent patch will cut this
down to something closer to what NFSv2 and NFSv3 uses.

This patch should cause no behavior changes.

When decode_devicenotify_args() exits with no entries, we need to
ensure that the struct cb_devicenotifyargs is initialised to
{ 0, NULL } in order to avoid problems in
nfs4_callback_devicenotify().

<title>SUNRPC: Change return value type of .pc_encode</title>

Returning an undecorated integer is an age-old trope, but it's
not clear (even to previous experts in this code) that the only
valid return values are 1 and 0. These functions do not return
a negative errno, rpc_stat value, or a positive length.

Document there are only two valid return values by having
.pc_encode return only true or false.

<title>SUNRPC: Replace the "__be32 *p" parameter to .pc_encode</title>

<content type='text'>
The passed-in value of the "__be32 *p" parameter is now unused in
every server-side XDR encoder, and can be removed.

Note also that there is a line in each encoder that sets up a local
pointer to a struct xdr_stream. Passing that pointer from the
dispatcher instead saves one line per encoder function.
