New Revision: 231133
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/231133

Log:
  r228827 fixed a problem where copying of NFSv4 open credentials into
  a credential structure would corrupt it. This happened when the
  p argument was != NULL. However, I now realize that the copying of
  open credentials should only happen for p == NULL, since that indicates
  that it is a read-ahead or write-behind. This patch fixes this.
  After this commit, r228827 could be reverted, but I think the code is
  clearer and safer with the patch, so I am going to leave it in.
  Without this patch, it was possible that a NFSv4 VOP_SETATTR() could have
  changed the credentials of the caller. This would have happened if
  the process doing the VOP_SETATTR() did not have the file open, but
  some other process running as a different uid had the file open for writing
  at the same time.
