sunrpc: fix oops in rpc_create when the mount namespace is unshared

On a system with nfs mounts, if a task unshares its mount namespace,
a oops can occur when the system is rebooted if the task is the last
to unreference the nfs mount. It will try to create a rpc request
using utsname() which has been invalidated by free_nsproxy().

The patch fixes the issue by using the global init_utsname() which is
always valid. the capability of identifying rpc clients per uts namespace
stills needs some extra work so this should not be a problem.
