As far as I can tell this is because of the headers in 
/etc/init.d/nfs-common:

# Default-Start:     S
# Default-Stop:      0 1 6

If you previously had S links in other runlevels than S as far as I 
understand update-rc.d should not touch them. You should be able to fix 
this with

    update-rc.d nfs-common remove
    update-rc.d nfs-common defaults
    update-rc.d nfs-common disable

Beware I just tried this on my system (sid) and got... interesting 
results. I had to run the 'remove' and 'defaults' twice to get the 
desired results. Might be a strange interaction with the previous run of 
'systemctl disable nfs-common'.

According to the changelog nfs-common was switched to only start in 
runlevel S as of version 1:1.2.8-6. I'm guessing it didn't also remove 
old (now obsolete) symlinks. If my theory is correct you should probably 
report this as a bug against nfs-common.

Kind regards,
Andrei
