Subject: Patch: Provide the offending UID/GID/name for which mapping fails we can debug the reasons

Hi folks,

It is annoying to see these messages in /var/log/messages:

2019-03-04 23:15:23 nfsidmap[25468]: name_lookup: nfs4_gid_to_name:
failed: Unknown error -2

because you have no idea what UID/GID/name failed.

Attached is a git-format-patch patch to add the additional info to
those error messages.

It does not add any new messages.

Let me know what you think.
