svcrpc: fix failures to handle -1 uid's
commit 0979292bfa301cb87d936b69af428090d2feea1b upstream. As of f025adf191924e3a75ce80e130afcd2485b53bb8 "sunrpc: Properly decode kuids and kgids in RPC_AUTH_UNIX credentials" any rpc containing a -1 (0xffff) uid or gid would fail with a badcred error. Commit afe3c3fd5392b2f0066930abc5dbd3f4b14a0f13 "svcrpc: fix failures to handle -1 uid's and gid's" fixed part of the problem, but overlooked the gid upcall--the kernel can request supplementary gid's for the -1 uid, but mountd's attempt write a response will get -EINVAL. Symptoms were nfsd failing to reply to the first attempt to use a newly negotiated krb5 context.
