NFS: Fix calls to drop_nlink()

commit 1f018458b30b0d5c535c94e577aa0acbb92e1395 upstream.

It is almost always wrong for NFS to call drop_nlink() after removing a
file. What we really want is to mark the inode's attributes for
revalidation, and we want to ensure that the VFS drops it if we're
reasonably sure that this is the final unlink().
Do the former using the usual cache validity flags, and the latter
by testing if inode->i_nlink == 1, and clearing it in that case.

This also fixes the following warning reported by Neil Brown and
Jeff Layton (among others).
