Subject: [PATCH 050/109] fs: add do_renameat2() helper; remove internal call to sys_renameat2()

Using this helper removes in-kernel calls to the sys_renameat2() syscall.

This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180325162527.GA17492@light.dominikbrodowski.net
