3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Weston Andros Adamson <[email protected]>

commit bbd3a8eee82a2a6f4aa1cce60ccb014f25e5c560 upstream.

Don't check MAY_WRITE as a newly created file may not have write mode bits,
but POSIX allows the creating process to write regardless.
This is ok because NFSv4 OPEN ops handle write permissions correctly -
the ACCESS in the OPEN compound is to differentiate READ v EXEC permissions.

Fixes a regression due to commit 6168f62c (NFSv4: Add ACCESS operation to
OPEN compound)
