[ Upstream commit ab04de60ae1cc64ae16b77feae795311b97720c7 ] write_bytes_to_xdr_buf() is a generic way to place a variable-length data item in an already-reserved spot in the encoding buffer. However, it is costly. In nfsd4_encode_fattr(), it is unnecessary because the data item is fixed in size and the buffer destination address is always word-aligned.

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.
