knfsd: nfsd: allow auth_sys nlm on rpcsec_gss exports

Our clients (like other clients, as far as I know) use only auth_sys for nlm,
even when using rpcsec_gss for the main nfs operations.

Administrators that want to deny non-kerberos-authenticated locking requests
will need to turn off NFS protocol versions less than 4....
