NFS: Drop inode after rename
When doing a rename on top of an existing file that is not in use, the inode of the overwritten file will remain in the icache. The fix is to decrement i_nlink of the overwritten inode, like we do for unlink, rmdir etc already. Problem diagnosed by Olaf Kirch. This patch is a slight variation on his fix.
