2.6.37-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Trond Myklebust <[email protected]>

commit e00b8a24041f37e56b4b8415ce4eba1cbc238065 upstream.

There is no reason to be freeing the delegation cred in the rcu callback,
and doing so is resulting in a lockdep complaint that rpc_credcache_lock
is being called from both softirq and non-softirq contexts.
