Remove duplicated helper functions to parse opaque XDR objects
and place inside the xdr.h file.  Also update comment which
is wrong since lockd is not the only user of xdr_netobj.

Hmm... I'm not too keen on having these in sunrpc/xdr.h. For one thing,
they do not describe objects that are XDR encoded. Secondly, their
naming isn't really consistent with any of the existing conventions for
xdr.

Can we please rather just create a new header file that is private in
net/sunrpc/auth_gss/ ?

Sure.  Do you have any preference for the name?
internal.h
auth_gss.h
something else...
