    nfsd: correctly handle return value from nfsd_map_name_to_*

    commit 47c85291d3dd1a51501555000b90f8e281a0458e upstream.

in kernel 2.6.32.30 fixes a regression introduced by commit 3c726023402a2f3b28f49b9d90ebf9e71151157d. However, this commit hasn't been backported to the 2.6.32 kernel.

So, rather an fixing a regression, it introduces one and this patch should be reverted.
