I have been investigating a module reference count leak on the server for
rpcsec_gss_krb5.ko.  It turns out the problem is a reference count leak for
the security context in net/sunrpc/auth_gss/svcauth_gss.c.

The problem is that gss_write_init_verf() calls gss_svc_searchbyctx() which
does a rsc_lookup() but never releases the reference to the context.  There is
another issue that rpc.svcgssd sets an "end of time" expiration for the
context

By adding a cache_put() call in gss_svc_searchbyctx(), and setting an
expiration timeout in the downcall, cache_clean() does clean up the context
and the module reference count now goes to zero after unmount.

I also verified that if the context expires and then the client makes a new
request, a new context is established.

Here is the patch to fix the kernel, I will start a separate thread to discuss
what expiration time should be set by rpc.svcgssd.
