Title:
  Autofs variables do not work with kernel 4.4.0-38.57

Status in autofs package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Autofs supports variables (e.g. $UID, $GID, $HOME, etc), which can be
  used in automounter map files. One may have configuration such as
  "credentials=${HOME}/.authfile,uid=${UID},gid=${GID}".

  If accessing the mount as user "foo", this should have the automounter
  take credentials from ~foo/.authfile and mount it as being owned by
  foo:foo.

  On kernel 4.4.0-36.55 and earlier this all works as expected.

  It no longer works with kernel 4.4.0-38.57 and instead these variables are 
always as user "root".
