nfsd4: fix null dereference creating nfsv4 callback client
On setting up the callback to the client, we attempt to use the same authentication flavor the client did. We find an rpc cred to use by calling rpcauth_lookup_credcache(), which assumes that the given authentication flavor has a credentials cache. However, this is not required to be true--in particular, auth_null does not use one. Instead, we should call the auth's lookup_cred() method. Without this, a client attempting to mount using nfsv4 and auth_null triggers a null dereference. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
