I'm not sure why a credential was added to these in the first place, it is not used anywhere and it doesn't make much sense: The credentials for syncing a file (ability to write to the file) should be checked at the system call level. Credentials for syncing one or more filesystems ("none") should be checked at the system call level as well. If the filesystem implementation needs a particular credential to carry out the syncing it would logically have to the cached mount credential, or a credential cached along with any delayed write data.
