NFSv4: Always set NLINK even if the server doesn't support it

Browse source

[ Upstream commit 3a3065352f ]

fattr4_numlinks is a recommended attribute, so the client should emulate
it even if the server doesn't support it. In decode_attr_nlink function
in nfs4xdr.c, nlink is initialized to 1. However, this default value
isn't set to the inode due to the check in nfs_fhget.

So if the server doesn't support numlinks, inode's nlink will be zero,
the mount will fail with error "Stale file handle". Set the nlink to 1
if the server doesn't support it.
