Don't grab Giant in crfree(), since prison_free() no longer requires it.
The uidinfo code appears to be MPSAFE, and is referenced without Giant elsewhere. While this grab of Giant was only made in fairly rare circumstances (actually GC'ing on refcount==0), grabbing Giant here potentially introduces lock order issues with any locks held by the caller. So this probably won't help performance much unless you change credentials a lot in an application, and leave a lot of file descriptors and cached credentials around. However, it simplifies locking down consumers of the credential interfaces. Bumped into by: sam Appeased: tjr
