libexport: Fix IP address check in check_netgroup()

Neil Brown reports that recent changes to replace
gethostby{addr,name}(3) with get{addr,info}name(3) may have
inadvertently broken netgroup support.

There used to be a gethostbyaddr(3) call in the third paragraph in
check_netgroup().  The reason for that gethostbyaddr(3) call was that
the first innetgr(3) call has already confirmed that hname is not a
member of the netgroup.  We also need to confirm that, if hname
happens to be an IP address, the hostname bound to that IP address is
not a member of the netgroup, either.

Fix this by restoring appropriate address to hostname mapping of hname
before retrying the innetgr(3) call.

See http://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=128084830214653&w=2 .

Introduced by commit 0509d3428f523776ddd9d6e9fa318587d3ec7d84.
