Allow atomic exchange via RENAME_EXCHANGE when using simple_rename.
This affects binderfs, ramfs, hubetlbfs and bpffs.
Ramfs and hugetlbfs are generic enough; those seem safe.

Binderfs: I have no idea what this does; binderfs_rename() should
probably error out on RENAME_EXCHANGE for now, or an explicit ack from
the maintainers.

Bpffs is your baby...

Thanks,
Miklos
