Also noticed while auditing these error returns.  There's all kinds of
weird crap in here.

    nfsd4: it's OK to return nfserr_symlink
    
    The nfsd4 code has a bunch of special exceptions for error returns which
    map nfserr_symlink to other errors.
    
    In fact, the spec makes it clear that nfserr_symlink is to be preferred
    over less specific errors where possible.
    
    The patch that introduced it back in 2.6.4 is "kNFSd: correct symlink
    related error returns.", which claims that these special exceptions are
    represent an NFSv4 break from v2/v3 tradition--when in fact the symlink
    error was introduced with v4.
    
    I suspect what happened was pynfs tests were written that were overly
    faithful to the (known-incomplete) rfc3530 error return lists, and then
    code was fixed up mindlessly to make the tests pass.
    
    Delete these unnecessary exceptions.
