[PATCH] nilfs2: fix incorrect masking of permission flags for symlinks

[Ryusuke Konishi]

The permission flags of newly created symlinks are wrongly dropped on
nilfs2 with the current umask value even though symlinks should have
777 (rwxrwxrwx) permissions:

 $ umask
 0022
 $ touch file && ln -s file symlink; ls -l file symlink
 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Jun 23 16:29 file
 lrwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 4 Jun 23 16:29 symlink -> file

This fixes the bug by inserting a missing check that excludes
symlinks.
