When truncating the encode buffer, the page_ptr is getting advanced, causing the next page to be skipped while encoding. The page is still included in the response, so the response contains a page of bogus data. We need to adjust the page_ptr backwards to ensure we encode the next page into the correct place. We saw this triggered when concurrent directory modifications caused nfsd4_encode_direct_fattr() to return nfserr_noent, and the resulting call to xdr_truncate_encode() corrupted the READDIR reply.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
