Implement code to derive a new set of creds for the cachefiles to use when making VFS or I/O calls and to change the auditing info since the application interacting with the network filesystem is not accessing the cache directly. Cachefiles uses override_creds() to change the effective creds temporarily. set_security_override_from_ctx() is called to derive the LSM 'label' that the cachefiles driver will act with. set_create_files_as() is called to determine the LSM 'label' that will be applied to files and directories created in the cache. These functions alter the new creds. Also implement a couple of functions to wrap the calls to begin/end cred overriding.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
