Subject: [PATCH] statd: take user-id from /var/lib/nfs/sm

Having /var/lib/nfs writeable by statd is not ideal
as there are files in there that statd doesn't need
to access.
After dropping privs, statd and sm-notify only need to
access files in the directories sm and sm.bak.
So take the uid for these deamons from 'sm'.

Upstream-Status: Backport [https://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=steved/nfs-utils.git;a=commitdiff;h=fee2cc29e888f2ced6a76990923aef19d326dc0e]
CVE: CVE-2019-3689
