NFSv4: Servers should only check SETATTR stateid open mode on size change
The NFSv4 and NFSv4.1 specs are both clear that the server should only check
stateid open mode if a SETATTR specifies the size attribute. If the
open mode is not one that allows writing, then it returns NFS4ERR_OPENMODE.
In the case where the SETATTR is not changing the size, the client will
still pass it the delegation stateid to ensure that the server does not
recall that delegation. In that case, the server should _ignore_ the
delegation open mode, and simply apply standard permission checks.
