Hi Amir,
If this is just an optimization to redirect, then why not store it
only during rename (like redirct path).
Given you are storing it all the time for merged dir during copy up,
looks like you plan to use it for other use cases too. May be it
makes sense to either mention those use cases here or in this patch
just create file handle over rename and then in later patches change
it with explanation.
Or I missed the intent completely?

This message probably should go where you are actually turning off the

Do we need to check for redirect_dir. Looks like redirect_dir has to
be enabled if redirect_fh is enabled?

Is this ->redirect_fh=false declarations needed? We do ufs allocation
using kzalloc() and that means all the fields are 0 value.
