Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: fix return error code for nfsd_map_name_to_[ug]id

idmap lookups can time out while the cache is waiting for a userspace
upcall reply. In that case cache_check() returns -ETIMEDOUT to callers.

The nfsd_map_name_to_[ug]id functions currently proceed with attempting
to map the id to a kuid despite a potentially temporary failure to
perform the idmap lookup. This results in the code returning the error
NFSERR_BADOWNER which can cause client operations to return to userspace
with failure.

Fix this by returning the failure status before attempting kuid mapping.

This will return NFSERR_JUKEBOX on idmap lookup timeout so that clients
can retry the operation instead of aborting it.

Fixes: 65e10f6d0ab0 ("nfsd: Convert idmap to use kuids and kgids")
