[PATCH 014 of 14] knfsd: Don't mess with the 'mode' when storing a exclusive-create cookie.

[NeilBrown]

From: Peter Staubach <staubach@xxxxxxxxxx>

NFS V3 (and V4) support exclusive create by passing a 'cookie' which
can get stored with the file.  If the file exists but has exactly the
right cookie stored, then we assume this is a retransmit and the
exclusive create was successful.

The cookie is 64bits and is traditionally stored in the mtime and
atime fields.  This causes a problem with Solaris7 as negative mtime
or atime confuse it.  So we moved two bits into the mode word instead.

But inherited ACLs sometimes overwrite the mode word on create, so
this is a problem.

So we give up and just store 62 of the 64 bits and assume that is
close enough.
