The PATHCONF switch in nfsd3_proc_pathconf() recognizes -EOPNOTSUPP
(filesystem does not expose case state) and maps -EACCES / -EPERM to
nfserr_stale, but lets every other errno fall through to
nfserr_serverfault. -ESTALE escapes the same way even though RFC 1813
lists NFS3ERR_STALE as a permitted PATHCONF status, so a probe of an
NFS-backed re-export whose parent dentry has been invalidated returns
SERVERFAULT and tells the client the server is broken when the handle
itself simply went stale.
Add an explicit -ESTALE arm that maps to nfserr_stale.
