Have you tried it against a Linux NFS V3 server? When I log in
with my home directory mounted from a Linux NFS V3 server, I
got kernel oops when I do
# cat /proc/mounts
I think the problem may be cookie transform thing.

I don't understand this. As far as I can tell, "cookie" is not
initialized at all. Even if it is initialized, what does
p = xdr_decode_hyper(p, cookie);
do?
