Subject: [PATCH] NFSD: nfsd_unlink() clobbers non-zero status returned from
 fh_fill_pre_attrs()

If fh_fill_pre_attrs() returns a non-zero status, the error flow
takes it through out_unlock, which then overwrites the returned
status code with

	err = nfserrno(host_err);

Fixes: a332018a91c4 ("nfsd: handle failure to collect pre/post-op attrs more sanely")
