I don't see the calls to kunmap() in ufs_rename converted here?

Did I miss them?

I think those calls need to be changed to ufs_put_page() calls in a precursor
patch to this one unless I'm missing something.

Any address in the page can be passed to kunmap_local() as this mask is done
internally.

I don't follow why this comment needed changing for this patch.  It probably
warrants it's own patch.

I feel like this deserves a comment to clarify that dir points somewhere in the
page we need the base address of.

NIT: I'd make this conversion a separate patch.
