SUNRPC: Fix a memory leak in the auth credcache code
The leak only affects the RPCSEC_GSS caches, since they are the only ones that are dynamically allocated... Rename the existing rpcauth_free_credcache() to rpcauth_clear_credcache() in order to better describe its role, then add a new function rpcauth_destroy_credcache() that actually frees the cache in addition to clearing it out. Also move the call to destroy the credcache in gss_destroy() to come before the rpc upcall pipe is unlinked. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
