2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Jeff Layton upstream commit: fcc7c09d94be7b75c9ea2beb22d0fae191c6b4b9 Discovered at Connnectathon 2009... The buffer format byte and the pad are transposed in NT_RENAME calls (which are used to set hardlinks). Most servers seem to ignore this fact, but NetApp filers throw back an error due to this problem. This patch fixes it.
