[PATCH] fs:minix: catch inode->i_nlink == 0 in minix_rename()

[Du Cheng]

If the destination inode has i_nlink==0, it is invalid. Hence we should
return an error instead of proceeding with drop_nlink() which causes
WARN_ON().

This patch fixed the kernel panic on my testing envionment with the syzbot
reproducer.

This patch works in a similar spirit with the following patch on bad inode:
