s_stid->si_generation is a u32, copy->stateid.seqid is a __be32, so we
should be byte-swapping here if necessary.
This effectively undoes the byte-swap performed when reading
s_stid->s_generation in nfsd4_decode_copy(). Without this second swap,
the stateid we sent to the source in READ could be different from the
one the client provided us in the COPY. We didn't spot this in testing
since our implementation always uses a 0 in the seqid field. But other
implementations might not do that.
You'd think we should just skip the byte-swapping entirely, but the
s_stid field can be used for either our own stateids (in the
intra-server case) or foreign stateids (in the inter-server case), and
the former are interpreted by us and need byte-swapping.

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.
