Subject: [PATCH 00/11] cross rename v3

[Only cosmetic changes from v2 based on Jan Kara's review]

This series adds a new syscall, renameat2(), which is the same as renameat() but
with a flags argument.

The purpose of extending rename is to add cross-rename, a symmetric variant of
rename, which exchanges the two files.  This allows interesting things, which
were not possible before, for example atomically replacing a directory tree with
a symlink, etc...  This also allows overlayfs and friends to operate on
whiteouts atomically.

Andy Lutomirski also suggested a "noreplace" flag, which disables the
overwriting behavior of rename.

These two flags, RENAME_EXCHANGE and RENAME_NOREPLACE are only implemented for
ext4 as an example and for testing.

Implementing RENAME_NOREPLACE for other local (disk or ram based) filesystems is
trivial: just don't fail with -EOPNOTSUPP, the rest is done by the VFS.  Network
filesystems need special treatment to avoid creation races.


Please consider for -next (3.14).
