A bisect shows that commit +e18e157bb5c8 ("SUNRPC: Send RPC message on TCP with a single +sock_sendmsg() call") is the first bad commit. + +That commit assumed that sock_sendmsg() releases all the pages in +the underlying bio_vec array, but the reality is that it doesn't. +svc_xprt_release() releases the rqst's response pages, but the +record marker page fragment isn't one of those, so it is never +released. + +This is a narrow fix that can be applied to stable kernels.
