Subject: nfsd4: fix xdr4 count of server in fs_location4

commit bf7491f1be5e125eece2ec67e0f79d513caa6c7e upstream.

Fix a bug where nfsd4_encode_components_esc() incorrectly calculates the
length of server array in fs_location4--note that it is a count of the
number of array elements, not a length in bytes.
