>Description:

Two fixes for VFS_CHECKEXP, one a typo, one fixes the
erroneous description of what it actually does.

One fix for VFS_FHTOVP, unrelated to the previous PR. Currently
VFS_FHTOVP claims it should be followed by a VFS_CHECKEXP call,
and VFS_CHECKEXP call claims it should be followed by a VFS_FHTOVP
call, which creates an amusing deadlock situation ;) In reality,
as both common sense and nfs_subs.c demonstrate, VFS_CHECKEXP is
correct.
