Subject: [PATCH 5.6 071/166] NFS: alloc_nfs_open_context() must use the file cred when available

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@...merspace.com>

[ Upstream commit 1d179d6bd67369a52edea8562154b31ee20be1cc ]

If we're creating a nfs_open_context() for a specific file pointer,
we must use the cred assigned to that file.

Fixes: a52458b48af1 ("NFS/NFSD/SUNRPC: replace generic creds with 'struct cred'.")
