[PATCH] Btrfs: incremental send, don't delay directory renames unnecessarily

[Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com>]

Even though we delay the rename of directories when they become
descendents of other directories that were also renamed in the send
root to prevent infinite path build loops, we were doing it in cases
where this was not needed and was actually harmful resulting in
infinite path build loops as we ended up with a circular dependency
of delayed directory renames.

Consider the following reproducer:

  $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
  $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
  $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc
  $ mount /dev/sdc /mnt2

  $ mkdir /mnt/data
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/n1
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/n1/n2
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/n4
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/n1/n2/p1
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/n1/n2/p1/p2
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/t6
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/t7
  $ mkdir -p /mnt/data/t5/t7
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/t2
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/t4
  $ mkdir -p /mnt/data/t1/t3
  $ mkdir /mnt/data/p1
  $ mv /mnt/data/t1 /mnt/data/p1
  $ mkdir -p /mnt/data/p1/p2
  $ mv /mnt/data/t4 /mnt/data/p1/p2/t1

  ERROR: send ioctl failed with -12: Cannot allocate memory

This reproducer resulted in an infinite path build loop when building the
path for inode 266 because the following circular dependency of delayed
directory renames was created:

   ino 272 <- ino 261 <- ino 259 <- ino 268 <- ino 267 <- ino 261

Where the notation "X <- Y" means the rename of inode X is delayed by the
rename of inode Y (X will be renamed after Y is renamed). This resulted
in an infinite path build loop of inode 266 because that inode has inode
261 as an ancestor in the send root and inode 261 is in the circular
dependency of delayed renames listed above.

Fix this by not delaying the rename of a directory inode if an ancestor of
the inode in the send root, which has a delayed rename operation, is not
also a descendent of the inode in the parent root.

Thanks to Robbie Ko for sending the reproducer example.
A test case for xfstests follows soon.
