Re: [PATCH v1] SUNRPC: Fix NFS READs that start at non-page-aligned offsets

["A. Duvnjak" <avian@extremenerds.net>]

I tried this patch on 5.10.12 (which would normally produce streaming errors).  So far it works well.   Have tried it in the three situations that would previously cause issues -  Kodi on Windows,  Kodi on Mac, and the Windows 10 NFS client with VLC.  All check out fine.
