Subject: ksmbd: clear RENAME_NOREPLACE before calling vfs_rename
From: Marios Makassikis <mmakassikis@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 4973b04d3ea577db80c501c5f14e68ec69fe1794 upstream.
File overwrite case is explicitly handled, so it is not necessary to
pass RENAME_NOREPLACE to vfs_rename.
Clearing the flag fixes rename operations when the share is a ntfs-3g
mount. The latter uses an older version of fuse with no support for
flags in the ->rename op.
