NFS: change nfs_access_get_cached to only report the mask
[ Upstream commit b5e7b59c3480f355910f9d2c6ece5857922a5e54 ]
Currently the nfs_access_get_cached family of functions report a
'struct nfs_access_entry' as the result, with both .mask and .cred set.
However the .cred is never used. This is probably good and there is no
guarantee that it won't be freed before use.
Change to only report the 'mask' - as this is all that is used or needed.
