    nfs: don't use d_move in nfs_async_rename_done · 73ca1001

    If the task that initiated the sillyrename ends up being killed by a
    fatal signal, then it will eventually return back to userspace and end
    up releasing the i_mutex. d_move however needs to be done while holding
    the i_mutex.
    
    Instead of using d_move here, just unhash the old and new dentries to
    prevent them from being found by lookups. With this change though, the
    dentries are now incorrect post-rename and do not reflect the actual
    name of the file on the server. I'm proceeding under the assumption
    that since they are unhashed that this isn't really a problem.
    
    In order for the sillydelete to still work though, the dname must be
    copied earlier when setting up the sillydelete info, and the name must
    be recopied if the sillydelete info has to be moved to a new dentry.
