Ok, incremental patch on top of the series is attached. I ended up not
dealing with the exception at higher layers, but rather just declaring
a new "ERECALLCONFLICT" error code and using that to indicate the
special behavior that those errors require. I'll plan to fold this into
the patch that broke this before I resend.

Subject: [PATCH] pnfs: rework LAYOUTGET error handling

IS_ERR can't handle errors in the range of -NFS4ERR_* error codes.
