pNFS/flexfiles: don't attempt pnfs on fatal DS errors
When an applications get killed (SIGTERM/SIGINT) while pNFS client performs a connection
to DS, client ends in an infinite loop of connect-disconnect. This
source of the issue, it that flexfilelayoutdev#nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds gets an error
on nfs4_pnfs_ds_connect with status ERESTARTSYS, which is set by rpc_signal_task, but
the error is treated as transient, thus retried.
The issue is reproducible with Ctrl+C the following script(there should be ~1000 files in
a directory, client should must not have any connections to DSes):
```
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
for i in *
do
head -1 $i
done
```
The change aims to propagate the nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds error state
to the caller that can decide whatever this is a retryable error or not.
