734fcac78d Add crgetfsuid()/crgetfsgid() helpers
Solaris credentials don't have an fsuid/fsguid field but Linux
credentials do.  To handle this case the Solaris API is being
modestly extended to include the crgetfsuid()/crgetfsgid()
helper functions.

Addititionally, because the crget*() helpers are implemented
identically regardless of HAVE_CRED_STRUCT they have been
moved outside the #ifdef to common code.  This simplification
means we only have one version of the helper to keep to to date.

6b09f73939 Remove get/put_task_struct as they are not available for SLES11
This interface is going away, and it's not as if most callers actually
use crhold/crfree when working with credentials.  So it'll be okay
they we're not taking a reference on the task structure the odds of
it going away while working with a credential and pretty small.

ec7d53e99a Add basic credential support and splat tests.
The previous credential implementation simply provided the needed types and
a couple of dummy functions needed.  This update correctly ties the basic
Solaris credential API in to one of two Linux kernel APIs.

Prior to 2.6.29 the linux kernel embeded all credentials in the task
structure.  For these kernels, we pass around the entire task struct as if
it were the credential, then we use the helper functions to extract the
credential related bits.

As of 2.6.29 a new credential type was added which we can and do fairly
cleanly layer on top of.  Once again the helper functions nicely hide
the implementation details from all callers.

Three tests were added to the splat test framework to verify basic
correctness.  They should be extended as needed when need credential
functions are added.
