CRED: Fix NFSD regression
Fix a regression in NFSD's permission checking introduced by the credentials patches. There are two parts to the problem, both in nfsd_setuser(): (1) The return value of set_groups() is -ve if in error, not 0, and should be checked appropriately. 0 indicates success. (2) The UID to use for fs accesses is in new->fsuid, not new->uid (which is 0). This causes CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE to always be set, rather than being cleared if the UID is anything other than 0 after squashing. Reported-by: J.
