No, it's not right.
For the users, they expect the C flag is not lost because they just do
a rename operation. but fixup_inode_flags() re-sets the flags by the
parent directory's flag.
I think we should inherit the flags from the parent just when we create
a new file/directory, in the other cases, just give a option to the users.
How do you think about?
Thanks
