RFC 8881 Section 18.25.4 paragraph 5 tells us that the server
should return NFS4ERR_FILE_OPEN only if the target object is an
opened file. This suggests that returning this status when removing
a directory will confuse NFS clients.
This is a version-specific issue; nfsd_proc_remove/rmdir() and
nfsd3_proc_remove/rmdir() already return nfserr_access as
appropriate.
Unfortunately there is no quick way for nfsd4_remove() to determine
whether the target object is a file or not, so the check is done in
to nfsd_unlink() for now.

Should that be "if (type == S_ISREG)" instead? What if the inode is a
named pipe or device file? I'm not sure you can ever get EBUSY with
those, but in case you can, what's the right error in those cases?
Check out nfsd_unlink()'s callers to see what they pass as the type
parameter. Unfortunately we have to compare against S_IFDIR here.
