UTS_RELEASE has maximum length of 64 which can cause rxrpc_version to
exceed the 65 byte message limit.
Per https://web.mit.edu/kolya/afs/rx/rx-spec
"If a server receives a packet with a type value of 13, and the
client-initiated flag set, it should respond with a 65-byte payload
containing a string that identifies the version of AFS software it is
running."
Current implementation causes compile error when WERROR is turned on and
when UTS_RELEASE exceed the length of 49 (making the version string more
than 64 characters.)

That's not thread-safe. If you have multiple endpoints each one of them could
be overwriting the string at the same time. We can't guarantee that one
wouldn't corrupt the other.
There's also no need to reprint it every time; just once during module init
will do. How about the attached patch instead?

rxrpc: Truncate UTS_RELEASE for rxrpc version
UTS_RELEASE has a maximum length of 64 which can cause rxrpc_version to
exceed the 65 byte message limit.
Per the rx spec[1]: "If a server receives a packet with a type value of 13,
and the client-initiated flag set, it should respond with a 65-byte payload
containing a string that identifies the version of AFS software it is
running."
The current implementation causes a compile error when WERROR is turned on
and/or UTS_RELEASE exceeds the length of 49 (making the version string more
than 64 characters).
Fix this by generating the string during module initialisation and limiting
the UTS_RELEASE segment of the string does not exceed 49 chars. We need to
make sure that the 64 bytes includes "linux-" at the front and " AF_RXRPC" at
the back as this may be used in pattern matching.
Fixes: 44ba06987c0b ("RxRPC: Handle VERSION Rx protocol packets")

This makes sense and looks fine to me. I don't know the proper
etiquette here, but

If I'm not going to pick the patch up, I tend to use Acked-by when reviewing a
patch that touches code I'm a listed maintainer for and Reviewed-by when it's
code that I'm not a maintainer for... but the descriptions in:
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
seem to leave a lot of overlap.

Thanks David ad Kenny,
can we arrange for a formal posting of the patch below?
I suspect it will languish otherwise.
