[PATCH][xenial/yakkety SRU] UBUNTU: SAUCE: (namespace) autofs4: Use real_cred for requestor's ids

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629204

autofs passes the uid and gid of the user requesting a mount to
userspace, taking them from current->cred. ca6fe3344554 "fs: Call
d_automount with the filesystems creds" causes a regression as
current->cred is now the credentials of real root during automount
and not the credentials of the user. Fix this by taking the ids
from current->real_cred instead.
