[PATCH 3.16 060/346] svc: Avoid garbage replies when pc_func() returns rpc_drop_reply

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Nov 13 2016 - 22:49:59 EST


3.16.39-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0533b13072f4bf35738290d2cf9e299c7bc6c42a upstream.

If an RPC program does not set vs_dispatch and pc_func() returns
rpc_drop_reply, the server sends a reply anyway containing a single
word containing the value RPC_DROP_REPLY (in network byte-order, of
course). This is a nonsense RPC message.
