I think the attached patch should fix this.

rxrpc: Fix over large frame size warning

Under some circumstances, the compiler will emit the following warning for
rxrpc_send_response():

   net/rxrpc/output.c: In function 'rxrpc_send_response':
   net/rxrpc/output.c:974:1: warning: the frame size of 1160 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes

This occurs because the local variables include a 16-element scatterlist
array and a 16-element bio_vec array.  It's probably not actually a problem
as this function is only called by the rxrpc I/O thread function in a
kernel thread and there won't be much on the stack before it.

Fix this by overlaying the bio_vec array over the kvec array in the
rxrpc_local struct.  There is one of these per I/O thread and the kvec
array is intended for pointing at bits of a packet to be transmitted,
typically a DATA or an ACK packet.  As packets for a local endpoint are
only transmitted by its specific I/O thread, there can be no race, and so
overlaying this bit of memory should be no problem.
