Moving common error handling into lookup_hash_update() simplifies callers. A future patch will export this functionality to nfsd, and the more code we put in the interface, the less code will be needed in nfsd. EEXIST is returned if LOOKUP_EXCL is set and dentry is positivie. ENOENT is returned if LOOKUP_CREAT is NOT set and dentry is negative. This involves seting LOOKUP_EXCL in cases where it wasn't before. In particular, when creating a non-dir named "foo/", we want the EEXIST error, but don't want to actually create anything. Some filesystems assume LOOKUP_EXCL implies LOOKUP_CREATE, so ensure it does when calling ->lookup().
