NFS: check for nfs_refresh_inode() errors in nfs_fhget()
If an NFS server returns a filehandle that we have previously
seen, and reports a different type, then nfs_refresh_inode()
will log a warning and return an error.
nfs_fhget() does not check for this error and may return an
inode with a different type than the one that the server
reported.
This is likely to cause confusion, and is one way that
->open_context() could return a directory inode as discussed
in the previous patch.
So if nfs_refresh_inode() returns and error, return that error
from nfs_fhget() to avoid the confusion propagating.
