    protocol/client: prevent use-after-free of frame->root
    
    A regression failure generated a coredump on the glusterfs-client side:
    
      (gdb) f 0
      #0  0x00007fba6cd76432 in client_submit_request (this=0x7fba68006fc0,

                      prog=0x7fba6cfb53c0 <clnt3_3_fop_prog>, procnum=41,

      /home/jenkins/root/workspace/rackspace-regression-2GB-triggered/xlators/protocol/client/src/client.c:324
      324                   frame->root->ngrps = ngroups;
      (gdb) l
      319                   gf_msg_debug (this->name, 0, "rpc_clnt_submit failed");
      320           }
      321
      322           if (!conf->send_gids) {
      323                   /* restore previous values */
      324                   frame->root->ngrps = ngroups;
      325                   if (ngroups <= SMALL_GROUP_COUNT)
      326                           frame->root->groups_small[0] = gid;
      327           }
      328
      (gdb) p *frame->root
      Cannot access memory at address 0x64185df000000000
    
    After looking at this in more detail, the flow is like this:
    
      client_submit_request()
        |
        '- rpc_clnt_submit() // on line 314
             |
             '- cbkfn() // = client3_3_release_cbk
                  |
                  :- STACK_DESTROY (frame->root);
             .----'
        .----'
        |
        :- frame->root->ngrps = ngroups; // on line 324
        '
    
    So, there is a use-after-free, and it is not needed to restore the
    previous groups in frame->root.
