Summary
ceph: pass cred pointer to ceph_mds_auth_match()
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ceph: pass cred pointer to cephmdsauth_match()

This eliminates a redundant getcurrentcred() call, because cephmdscheck_access() has already obtained this pointer.

As a side effect, this also fixes a reference leak in cephmdsauthmatch(): by omitting the getcurrent_cred() call, no additional cred reference is taken.
