Filipe Manana fdb1388994 Btrfs: incremental send, fix invalid path for unlink commands
An incremental send can contain unlink operations with an invalid target
path when we rename some directory inode A, then rename some file inode B
to the old name of inode A and directory inode A is an ancestor of inode B
in the parent snapshot (but not anymore in the send snapshot).

Consider the following example scenario where this issue happens.

Parent snapshot:

 .                                                      (ino 256)
 |
 |--- dir1/                                             (ino 257)
       |--- dir2/                                       (ino 258)
       |     |--- file1                                 (ino 259)
       |     |--- file3                                 (ino 261)
       |
       |--- dir3/                                       (ino 262)
             |--- file22                                (ino 260)
             |--- dir4/                                 (ino 263)

Send snapshot:

 .                                                      (ino 256)
 |
 |--- dir1/                                             (ino 257)
       |--- dir2/                                       (ino 258)
       |--- dir3                                        (ino 260)
       |--- file3/                                      (ino 262)
             |--- dir4/                                 (ino 263)
                   |--- file11                          (ino 269)
                   |--- file33                          (ino 261)

When attempting to apply the corresponding incremental send stream, an
unlink operation contains an invalid path which makes the receiver fail.
The following is verbose output of the btrfs receive command:

 receiving snapshot snap2 uuid=7d5450da-a573-e043-a451-ec85f4879f0f (...)
 utimes
 utimes dir1
 utimes dir1/dir2
 link dir1/dir3/dir4/file11 -> dir1/dir2/file1
 unlink dir1/dir2/file1
 utimes dir1/dir2
 truncate dir1/dir3/dir4/file11 size=0
 utimes dir1/dir3/dir4/file11
 rename dir1/dir3 -> o262-7-0
 link dir1/dir3 -> o262-7-0/file22
 unlink dir1/dir3/file22
 ERROR: unlink dir1/dir3/file22 failed. Not a directory

The following steps happen during the computation of the incremental send
stream the lead to this issue:

1) Before we start processing the new and deleted references for inode
   260, we compute the full path of the deleted reference
   ("dir1/dir3/file22") and cache it in the list of deleted references
   for our inode.

2) We then start processing the new references for inode 260, for which
   there is only one new, located at "dir1/dir3". When processing this
   new reference, we check that inode 262, which was not yet processed,
   collides with the new reference and because of that we orphanize
   inode 262 so its new full path becomes "o262-7-0".

3) After the orphanization of inode 262, we create the new reference for
   inode 260 by issuing a link command with a target path of "dir1/dir3"
   and a source path of "o262-7-0/file22".

4) We then start processing the deleted references for inode 260, for
   which there is only one with the base name of "file22", and issue
   an unlink operation containing the target path computed at step 1,
   which is wrong because that path no longer exists and should be
   replaced with "o262-7-0/file22".

So fix this issue by recomputing the full path of deleted references if
when we processed the new references for an inode we ended up orphanizing
any other inode that is an ancestor of our inode in the parent snapshot.

A test case for fstests follows soon.

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
