H A Dnamei.c1d2ef590 Wed Sep 14 12:55:41 CDT 2011 Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> restore pinning the victim dentry in vfs_rmdir()/vfs_rename_dir()

We used to get the victim pinned by dentry_unhash() prior to commit
64252c75a219 ("vfs: remove dget() from dentry_unhash()") and ->rmdir()
and ->rename() instances relied on that; most of them don't care, but
ones that used d_delete() themselves do. As the result, we are getting
rmdir() oopses on NFS now.

Just grab the reference before locking the victim and drop it explicitly
after unlocking, same as vfs_rename_other() does.
