What I do is much less sophisticated.  This patch will not allow a
rename that only changes the case of a name.  The memcpy just makes sure
that when a new entry is created, the existence of a previous negative
dentry doesn't affect the case of the new entry.

Is there still any interest in getting your patch into the kernel?
