3.13-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Trond Myklebust <[email protected]>

commit 9eb2ddb48ce3a7bd745c14a933112994647fa3cd upstream.

Fix a race in which the RPC client is shutting down while the
gss daemon is processing a downcall. If the RPC client manages to
shut down before the gss daemon is done, then the struct gss_auth
used in gss_release_msg() may have already been freed.
