Most of these are only called in gssd  process's context when it
performs the downcall.  Which doesn't change the fact that they're
needed for the rpc_new_task() to succeed, OK, so this isn't an objection
to this patch--but is there any plan for how we'll deal with e.g. memory
allocations that gssd does on its own?
