Public bug reported:

Autofs supports variables (e.g. $UID, $GID, $HOME, etc), which can be
used in automounter map files. One may have configuration such as
"credentials=${HOME}/.authfile,uid=${UID},gid=${GID}".

If accessing the mount as user "foo", this should have the automounter
take credentials from ~foo/.authfile and mount it as being owned by
foo:foo.

On kernel 4.4.0-36.55 and earlier this all works as expected.

It no longer works with kernel 4.4.0-38.57 and instead these variables
are always as user "root".
