sunrpc: never return expired entries in sunrpc_cache_lookup
If sunrpc_cache_lookup finds an expired entry, remove it from
the cache and return a freshly created non-VALID entry instead.
This ensures that we only ever get a usable entry, or an
entry that will become usable once an update arrives.
i.e. we will never need to repeat the lookup.
This allows us to remove the 'is_expired' test from cache_check
(i.e. from cache_is_valid). cache_check should never get an expired
entry as 'lookup' will never return one. If it does happen - due to
inconvenient timing - then just accept it as still valid, it won't be
very much past it's use-by date.
