Subject: [PATCH 0/2] fix referencing wrong parent dir info after renaming

exfat_update_parent_info() is a workaround for the bug, but it only
fixes the rename system call, not by fixing the root cause, the bug
still causes other system calls to fail.

In this patch series, the first patch fixes the bug by fixing the root
cause. After it, exfat_update_parent_info() is no longer needed. So the
second patch removes exfat_update_parent_info().

Yuezhang Mo (2):
  exfat: fix referencing wrong parent directory information after
    renaming
  exfat: remove exfat_update_parent_info()
