A ds can be associated with more than one mirror, but we currently skip setting a mirror's credentials if we find that it's already set up with a connected client. The upshot is that we can end up sending DS writes with MDS credentials instead of properly setting them up. Fix nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds to always verify that the mirror's credentials are set up, even when we have a DS that's already connected.
