Andrew Deason 57b4f4f9be 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.
