As of f025adf191924e3a75ce80e130afcd2485b53bb8 "sunrpc: Properly decode
kuids and kgids in RPC_AUTH_UNIX credentials" any rpc containing a -1
(0xffff) uid or gid would fail with a badcred error.

Reported symptoms were xmbc clients failing on upgrade of the NFS
server; examination of the network trace showed them sending -1 as the
gid.
