The client can run a DOS attack on the server by requesting invalid attributes
and tripping the BUG_ONs in nfsd4_encode_fattr.

We can/should also change the BUG_ONs to either report invalid
attribute or just silently ignore them, but the client is
perfectly entitled to get attrs we don't support :)

For the GETATTR case, we just return the attrmask for the attrs we support.
IOW:
The server returns an attribute bitmap that
indicates the attribute values that it was able to return, which will
include all attributes requested by the client that are attributes
supported by the server for the target file system.

How can they do that? getattr and readdir, for example, both handle
this. But I may well be missing something!

Sure.

OK, makes sense.

The existing code handles unsupported attributes in the operations
themselves. Perhaps it makes sense to move those checks here, but if
so, explain why, and let's do this for all unsupported attributes, not
just these two.

Looking back at the spec.... I guess it's only on operations that set
attributes that we return NFS4ERR_ATTRNOTSUPP, and otherwise we silently
ignore them?

You're right. I got confused by the pnfsd specific bug I fixed here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=128587444310102&w=2

In this case LAYOUT_BLKSIZE was marked as supported but nothing
really supported it so we ended up with an invalid result sent
to the client.

So let's drop this patch. sorry.
