Yuezhang Mo 2ae96136ee exfat: fix referencing wrong parent directory information
During renaming, the parent directory information maybe
updated. But the file/directory still references to the
old parent directory information.

This bug will cause 2 problems.

(1) The renamed file can not be written.

    [10768.175172] exFAT-fs (sda1): error, failed to bmap (inode : 7afd50e4 iblock : 0, err : -5)
    [10768.184285] exFAT-fs (sda1): Filesystem has been set read-only
    ash: write error: Input/output error

(2) Some dentries of the renamed file/directory are not set
    to deleted after removing the file/directory.

exfat_update_parent_info() is a workaround for the wrong parent
directory information being used after renaming. Now that bug is
fixed, this is no longer needed, so remove it.

exFAT filesystem

This is the exfat filesystem for support from the linux 4.1 kernel to the latest kernel.

Installing as a stand-alone module

Install prerequisite package for Fedora, RHEL:

	yum install kernel-devel-$(uname -r)

Build step:

	make
	sudo make install

To load the driver manually, run this as root:

	modprobe exfat

Installing as a part of the kernel

  1. Let's take [linux] as the path to your kernel source dir.
	cd [linux]
	cp -ar exfat [linux]/fs/
  1. edit [linux]/fs/Kconfig
	source "fs/fat/Kconfig"
	+source "fs/exfat/Kconfig"
	source "fs/ntfs/Kconfig"
  1. edit [linux]/fs/Makefile
	obj-$(CONFIG_FAT_FS)          += fat/
	+obj-$(CONFIG_EXFAT_FS)       += exfat/
	obj-$(CONFIG_BFS_FS)          += bfs/
  1. make menuconfig and set exfat
	File systems  --->
		DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems  --->
