The first patch in the series fixes a bug where a directory fsync, following
by inode eviction, followed by renaming a file and syncing the log results
in losing a file if a power failure happens and the log is replayed.

The remaining two changes are independent, and are about avoiding unnecessary
work during operations that need to check or modify the log (renames, adding
a hard link, unlinks) and making renames hold log commits for a shorter
period.
Added to misc-next, thanks.
