[PATCH] NFS: large non-page-aligned direct I/O clobbers memory
The logic in nfs_direct_read_schedule and nfs_direct_write_schedule can
allow data->npages to be one larger than rpages. This causes a page
pointer to be written beyond the end of the pagevec in nfs_read_data (or
nfs_write_data).
Fix this by making nfs_(read|write)_alloc() calculate the size of the
pagevec array, and initialise data->npages.
Also get rid of the redundant argument to nfs_commit_alloc().
