A "permanent" struct xdr_stream is allocated in struct svc_rqst so that it is usable by all server-side decoders. A per-rqst scratch buffer is also allocated to handle decoding XDR data items that cross page boundaries. To demonstrate how it will be used, add the first call site for the new svcxdr_init_decode() API. As an additional part of the overall conversion, add symbolic constants for successful and failed XDR operations. Returning "0" is overloaded. Sometimes it means something failed, but sometimes it means success. To make it more clear when XDR decoding functions succeed or fail, introduce symbolic constants.
