SUNRPC: improve error response to over-size gss credential
When the NFS server receives a large gss (kerberos) credential and tries to pass it up to rpc.svcgssd (which is deprecated), it triggers an infinite loop in cache_read(). cache_request() always returns -EAGAIN, and this causes a "goto again". This patch: - changes the error to -E2BIG to avoid the infinite loop, and - generates a WARN_ONCE when rsi_request first sees an over-sized credential. The warning suggests switching to gssproxy.
