    Linux - Fix disk cache access for selinux/AppArmor constrained processes
    
    Preserve the credentials used for cache initialisation and use then
    whenever disk cache files are opened.  This takes advantage of the
    credentials separation work from David Howells available in kernels
    2.6.29 and above.
    Access to cache files was done under the security context of the
    user process, causing processes constrained by selinux or AppArmor to
    fail to access AFS cache files and causing the cache manager to panic.
    
    Besides the RT tickets, should also fix the following Ubuntu bugs:
     415766 429260 457779 459299
