    nfsd: revert v2 half of "nfsd: don't return high mode bits"
    
    This reverts the part of commit 6e14b46b91fee8a049b0940333ce13a820beaaa5
    that changes NFSv2 behavior.
    
    Mark Lord found that it broke nfs-root for Linux clients, because it
    broke NFSv2.
    
    In fact, from RFC 1094:
    
    	"Notice that the file type is specified both in the mode bits
    	and in the file type.  This is really a bug in the protocol and
    	will be fixed in future versions."
    
    So NFSv2 clients really are expected to depend on the high bits of the
    mode.
