I think it's just that nfs.stat3 makes more sense than

I keep running into this (when running the script on all dissectors) and keep
coming to the conclusion that nfs.nfsstat3 (and similar) is appropriate despite
my ignorance of the protocol.  It appears there are different types of "status"
and one of the "status types" is "nfs".  While there isn't an official list of
known false positives from the script, these certainly fall in that category.
