Since you have a struct mount * and an inode, it should be something like:
void
test_uidgid(struct mount *mp, ino_t ino)
{
struct vnode *vp;
struct inode *ip;
int error;
error = VFS_VGET(mp, ino, LK_SHARED, &vp);
if (error != 0) {
printf("Got error %d\n", error);
return;
}
ip = VTOI(vp);
printf("For inode %x, uid is %d, gid is %d\n", ino, ip->i_uid,
ip->i_gid);
vput(vp);
}

VFS_VGET gives you the vnode pointer; you shouldn't need getvnode() or
struct file or anything else. There are other ways to get a vnode *,
but from an ino_t that's the easiest I know of.
