LINUX: Properly revert creds in osi_UFSTruncate
Commit cd3221d3 (Linux: use override_creds when available) caused us to force the current process's creds to the creds of afsd during osi_file.c file ops, to avoid access errors in some cases. However, in osi_UFSTruncate, one code path was missed to revert our creds back to the original user's creds: when the afs_osi_Stat call fails or deems the truncate unnecessary. In this case, the calling process keeps the creds for afsd after osi_UFSTruncate returns, causing our subsequent access-checking code to think that the current process is in the same context as afsd (typically uid 0 without a pag). This can cause the calling process to appear to transiently have the same access as non-pag uid 0; typically this will be unauthenticated access, but could be authenticated if uid 0 has tokens. To fix this, modify the early return in osi_UFSTruncate to go through a 'goto done' destructor instead, and make sure we revert our creds in that destructor. Thanks to cwills@sinenomine.net for finding and helping reproduce the issue.

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many different machines, but are available to users on every machine. OpenAFS 1.0 was originally released by IBM under the terms of the IBM Public License 1.0 (IPL10). For details on IPL10 see the LICENSE file in this directory. The current OpenAFS distribution is licensed under a combination of the IPL10 and many other licenses as granted by the relevant copyright holders. The LICENSE file in this directory contains more details, thought it is not a comprehensive statement. See INSTALL for information about building and installing OpenAFS on various platforms.
