If caller provided the target dtype to use and indicated that with rename() flag RENAME_VFS_DTYPE, use RENAME_DT_MODE(flags) instead of inode->i_mode to determine the value of dtype to store in the directory entry. Adding this functionality to official xfs code will require to add a new feature flag to xfs directry naming on-disk format. Without that new feature flag, xfs_repair will report that custom dtype as a warning and set it back to the dtype value according to mode.
