fs: introduce lock_rename_child() helper
Pass the dentry of a source file and the dentry of a destination directory
to lock parent inodes for rename. As soon as this function returns,
->d_parent of the source file dentry is stable and inodes are properly
locked for calling vfs-rename. This helper is needed for ksmbd server.
rename request of SMB protocol has to rename an opened file, no matter
which directory it's in.
