PR# 165923 reported intermittent write failures for dirty

memory mapped pages being written back on an NFS mount.
Since any thread can call VOP_PUTPAGES() to write back a
dirty page, the credentials of that thread may not have
write access to the file on an NFS server. (Often the uid
is 0, which may be mapped to "nobody" in the NFS server.)
Although there is no completely correct fix for this
(NFS servers check access on every write RPC instead of at
open/mmap time), this patch avoids the common cases by
holding onto a credential that recently opened the file
for writing and uses that credential for the write RPCs
being done by VOP_PUTPAGES() for both NFS clients.
