userns: Simplify the user and group mapping functions Consolidate reading the number of extents and computing the return value in the map_id_down, map_id_range_down and map_id_range. This removal of one read of extents makes one smp_rmb unnecessary and makes the code safe it is executed during the map write. Reading the number of extents twice and depending on the result being the same is not safe, as it could be 0 the first time and > 5 the second time, which would lead to misinterpreting the union fields. The consolidation of the return value just removes a duplicate caluculation which should make it easier to understand and maintain the code. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
