afs: Fix accessing YFS xattrs on a non-YFS server
If someone attempts to access YFS-related xattrs (e.g. afs.yfs.acl) on a
file on a non-YFS AFS server (such as OpenAFS), then the kernel will jump
to a NULL function pointer because the afs_fetch_acl_operation descriptor
doesn't point to a function for issuing an operation on a non-YFS
server[1].
Fix this by making afs_wait_for_operation() check that the issue_afs_rpc
method is set before jumping to it and setting -ENOTSUPP if not. This fix
also covers other potential operations that also only exist on YFS servers.
afs_xattr_get/set_yfs() then need to translate -ENOTSUPP to -ENODATA as the
former error is internal to the kernel.
The bug shows up as an oops like the following:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
[...]
Code: Unable to access opcode bytes at RIP 0xffffffffffffffd6.
[...]

This was triggered with "cp -a" which attempts to copy xattrs, including
afs ones, but is easier to reproduce with getfattr, e.g.:
getfattr -d -m ".*" /afs/openafs.org/
