Currently, the knfsd server assumes that a short read indicates an end of file. That assumption is incorrect. The short read means that either we've hit the end of file, or we've hit a read error. In the case of a read error, the client may want to retry (as per the implementation recommendations in RFC1813 and RFC7530), but currently it is being told that it hit an eof. Move the code to detect eof from version specific code into the generic nfsd read. Report eof only in the two following cases: 1) read() returns a zero length short read with no error. 2) the offset+length of the read is >= the file size.

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.
