nfsd: Make creates return EEXIST instead of EACCES
When doing a create (mkdir/mknod) on a name, it's worth checking the name exists first before returning EACCES in case the directory is not writeable by the user. This makes return values on the client more consistent regardless of whenever the entry there is cached in the local cache or not. Another positive side effect is certain programs only expect EEXIST in that case even despite POSIX allowing any valid error to be returned.
