Now that all client-side XDR encoder routines use xdr_streams, there
should be no need to support the legacy calling sequence [rpc_rqst *,
__be32 *, RPC arg *] anywhere. We can construct an xdr_stream in the
generic RPC code, instead of in each encoder function.
Also, all the client-side encoder functions return 0 now, making a
return value superfluous. Take this opportunity to convert them to
return void instead.
This is a refactoring change. It should not cause different behavior.

We'd like to prevent local buffer overflows caused by malicious or
broken servers. New xdr_stream style decoders can do that.
For efficiency, we also want to be able to pass xdr_streams from
call_encode() to all XDR encoding functions, rather than building
an xdr_stream in every XDR encoding function in the kernel.
Same idea as the NLM v3 XDR overhaul.
