Pull shmem_rename2() offset fixes from Chuck Lever:

The existing code in shmem_rename2() allocates a fresh directory
offset value when renaming over an existing destination entry. User
space does not expect this behavior. In particular, applications
that rename while walking a directory can loop indefinitely because
they never reach the end of the directory.
