From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

commit b1e4adf4ea41bb8b5a7bfc1a7001f137e65495df upstream.

NFS appears to be returning an unnecessary "delete" notification when
we're doing an atomic rename. See

  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=575684

The fix is to get rid of the redundant call to d_delete().
