vfs: fix propagation of atomic_open create error on negative dentry
If ->atomic_open() returns -ENOENT, we take care to return the create error (e.g., EACCES), if any. Do the same when ->atomic_open() returns 1 and provides a negative dentry. This fixes a regression where an unprivileged open O_CREAT fails with ENOENT instead of EACCES, introduced with the new atomic_open code. It is tested by the open/08.t test in the pjd posix test suite, and was observed on top of fuse (backed by ceph-fuse).
