NFS: Fix double d_drop in nfs_instantiate() error path
If the LOOKUP or GETATTR in nfs_instantiate fail, nfs_instantiate will do a
d_drop before returning. But some callers already do a d_drop in the case
of an error return. Make certain we do only one d_drop in all error paths.
This issue was introduced because over time, the symlink proc API diverged
slightly from the create/mkdir/mknod proc API. To prevent other coding
mistakes of this type, change the symlink proc API to be more like
create/mkdir/mknod and move the nfs_instantiate call into the symlink proc
routines so it is used in exactly the same way for create, mkdir, mknod,
and symlink.
Test plan:
Connectathon, all versions of NFS.
