Subject: [PATCH 5.7 319/477] nfsd: safer handling of corrupted c_type

From: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit c25bf185e57213b54ea0d632ac04907310993433 ]

This can only happen if there's a bug somewhere, so let's make it a WARN
not a printk.  Also, I think it's safest to ignore the corruption rather
than trying to fix it by removing a cache entry.
