Chuck Lever 66d60e3ad1 NFSD: MKNOD should return NFSERR_BADTYPE instead of NFSERR_INVAL
A late paragraph of RFC 1813 Section 3.3.11 states:

| ... if the server does not support the target type or the
| target type is illegal, the error, NFS3ERR_BADTYPE, should
| be returned. Note that NF3REG, NF3DIR, and NF3LNK are
| illegal types for MKNOD.

The Linux NFS server incorrectly returns NFSERR_INVAL in these
cases.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
