Kernel routine nfsd_setuser() in fs/nfsd/auth.c checks for the
value -1 and defaults the credential's fsuid/fsgid to the
correct anonuid/anongid values for the given export. We should
be passing this value (-1) down when a name mapping cannot be found.

* -ENOENT means there was no mapping, any other error
