VFS/knfsd: Teach dentry_create() to use atomic_open()

While knfsd offers combined exclusive create and open results to clients,
on some filesystems those results may not be atomic.  This behavior can be
observed.  For example, an open O_CREAT with mode 0 will succeed in creating
the file but unexpectedly return -EACCES from vfs_open().

Additionally reducing the number of remote RPC calls required for O_CREAT
on network filesystem provides a performance benefit in the open path.

Teach knfsd's helper dentry_create() to use atomic_open() for filesystems
that support it.  The previously const @path is passed up to atomic_open()
and may be modified depending on whether an existing entry was found or if
the atomic_open() returned an error and consumed the passed-in dentry.
