nfsd4: fix open downgrade, again

Yet another open-management regression:

- nfs4_file_downgrade() doesn't remove the BOTH access bit on
  downgrade, so the server's idea of the stateid's access gets
  out of sync with the client's.  If we want to keep an O_RDWR
  open in this case, we should do that in the file_put_access
  logic rather than here.
- We forgot to convert v4 access to an open mode here.

This logic has proven too hard to get right.  In the future we may
consider:
- reexamining the lock/openowner relationship (locks probably
  don't really need to take their own references here).
- adding open upgrade/downgrade support to the vfs.
- removing the atomic operations.  They're redundant as long as
  this is all under some other lock.

Also, maybe some kind of additional static checking would help catch
O_/NFS4_SHARE_ACCESS confusion.
