Ryusuke Konishi e30ccbb9c0 nilfs2: do not update mtime of renamed directory that is not moved
A minor issue with nilfs_rename, originating from an old ext2
implementation, is that the mtime is updated even if the rename target is
a directory and it is renamed within the same directory, rather than moved
to a different directory.

In this case, the child directory being renamed does not change in any
way, so changing its mtime is unnecessary according to the specification,
and can unnecessarily confuse backup tools.

In ext2, this issue was fixed by commit 39fe7557b4 ("ext2: Do not update
mtime of a moved directory") and a few subsequent fixes, but it remained
in nilfs2.

Fix this issue by not calling nilfs_set_link(), which rewrites the inode
number of the directory entry that refers to the parent directory, when
the move target is a directory and the source and destination are the same
directory.

Here, the directory to be moved only needs to be read if the inode number
of the parent directory is rewritten with nilfs_set_link, so also adjust
the execution conditions of the preparation work to avoid unnecessary
directory reads.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
