 Currently we return -ENOMEM for every single failure to create a new auth.
 This is actually accurate for auth_null and auth_unix, but for auth_gss it's a
 bit confusing.

 Allow rpcauth_create (and the ->create methods) to return errors.  With this
 patch, the user may sometimes see an EINVAL instead.  Whee.
