nfsd: revoking of suid/sgid bits after chown() in a consistent way

There is an inconsistency in the handling of SUID/SGID file
bits after chown() between NFS and other local file systems.

Local file systems (for example, ext3, ext4, xfs, btrfs) revoke
SUID/SGID bits after chown() on a regular file even if
the owner/group of the file has not been changed:

~# touch file; chmod ug+s file; chmod u+x file
~# ls -l file
-rwsr-Sr-- 1 root root 0 Dec  6 04:49 file
~# chown root file; ls -l file
-rwxr-Sr-- 1 root root 0 Dec  6 04:49 file

but NFS doesn't do that:

~# touch file; chmod ug+s file; chmod u+x file
~# ls -l file
-rwsr-Sr-- 1 root root 0 Dec  6 04:49 file
~# chown root file; ls -l file
-rwsr-Sr-- 1 root root 0 Dec  6 04:49 file

NFS does that only if the owner/group has been changed:

~# touch file; chmod ug+s file; chmod u+x file
~# ls -l file
-rwsr-Sr-- 1 root root 0 Dec  6 05:02 file
~# chown bin file; ls -l file
-rwxr-Sr-- 1 bin root 0 Dec  6 05:02 file

See: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/chown.html

 "If the specified file is a regular file, one or more of
 the S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, or S_IXOTH bits of the file mode are set,
 and the process has appropriate privileges, it is
 implementation-defined whether the set-user-ID and set-group-ID
 bits are altered."

So both variants are acceptable by POSIX.

This patch makes NFS to behave like local file systems.
