[SRU J/K/HWE-5.17/OEM-5.14 2/8] SUNRPC: Fix svcxdr_init_encode's buflen calculation

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever at oracle.com>

Commit 2825a7f90753 ("nfsd4: allow encoding across page boundaries")
added an explicit computation of the remaining length in the rq_res
XDR buffer.

The computation appears to suffer from an "off-by-one" bug. Because
buflen is too large by one page, XDR encoding can run off the end of
the send buffer by eventually trying to use the struct page address
in rq_page_end, which always contains NULL.

Fixes: bddfdbcddbe2 ("NFSD: Extract the svcxdr_init_encode() helper")
