NFS: Only reference user namespace from nfs4idmap struct instead of cred

sargun · amschuma-ntap · commit 61ca2c4afd9d · 2020-10-13T15:56:54.000-04:00
The nfs4idmapper only needs access to the user namespace, and not the
entire cred struct. This replaces the struct cred* member with
struct user_namespace*. This is mostly hygiene, so we don't have to
hold onto the cred object, which has extraneous references to
things like user_struct. This also makes switching away
from init_user_ns more straightforward in the future.
