[NFS] [PATCH] Corrects error patch in nfs_instantiate()

In the 2.4.20 kernel, nfs_instantiate() is only calling d_drop() when
the lookup fails. The dentry also need to be removed from the
dirent cache when we can't get an inode.... Also, as Trond
pointed out, ENOMEM should be returned (instead of EACCES)
when we run out of inodes...
