[PATCH] SUNRPC: check current nsproxy before set of node name onclient creation

[Stanislav Kinsbursky]

When child reaper exits, it can destroy mount namespace it belong to, and if
there are NFS mounts inside, then it will try to umount them. But in this
point current->nsproxy is set to NULL and all namespaces will be destroyed one
by one. I.e. we can't dereference current->nsproxy to obtain uts namespace.
