NFSD: Never return NFS4ERR_FILE_OPEN when removing a directory

commit 370345b4bd184a49ac68d6591801e5e3605b355a upstream.

RFC 8881 Section 18.25.4 paragraph 5 tells us that the server
should return NFS4ERR_FILE_OPEN only if the target object is an
opened file. This suggests that returning this status when removing
a directory will confuse NFS clients.

This is a version-specific issue; nfsd_proc_remove/rmdir() and
nfsd3_proc_remove/rmdir() already return nfserr_access as
appropriate.

Unfortunately there is no quick way for nfsd4_remove() to determine
whether the target object is a file or not, so the check is done in
in nfsd_unlink() for now.
