2 questions:

- Why In this patch? - The first patch already fixes up what is allowed
  and what is not. It is more clear to establish protocol in one place
  so we can review.

- Why only this one? Why not all the nfserr_xxx allowed/make-sense, in
  a layoutget operation?

In my opinion we should only allow nfserr_xxx constants and be done with it
It should not be hard to fix all users.
