[PATCH 13/14] namei: prepare do_renameat2 for refactoring

From: Dmitry Kadashev <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-15 10:36:32
Also in: linux-fsdevel
Subsystem: filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

This is just a preparation for the move of the main renameat logic to a
separate function to make the logic easier to follow.  This change
contains the flow changes so that the actual change to move the main
logic to a separate function does no change the flow at all.

Changes to the flow here:

1. Flags handling is moved into the retry loop. So it can be moved
into the function with the main logic. A few extra arithmetic checks
on a slow path should be OK.

2. Just like the similar patches for rmdir and others a few commits
before, previously on filename_create() and filename_lookup() error the
function used to exit immediately, and now it will check the return code
to see if ESTALE retry is appropriate. Both filename_create() and
filename_lookup() do their own retries on ESTALE (at least via
filename_parentat() used inside), but this extra check should be
completely fine. Invalid flags will now hit `if retry_estale()` as well.

3. unlikely() is added around the ESTALE check;
