Re: [PATCH 5/5] Btrfs: incremental send, fix rmdir not send utimes

Hi Filipe,

I've fixed "don't send utimes for non-existing directory" with another solution.

 In apply_dir_move(), the old parent dir. and new parent dir. will be
updated after the current dir. has moved.

And there's only one entry in old parent dir. (e.g. entry with
smallest ino) will be tagged with rmdir_ino to prevent its parent dir.
is deleted but updated.

However, if we process rename for another entry not tagged with
rmdir_ino first, its old parent dir. which is deleted  will be updated
according to apply_dir_move().

Therefore, I think we should check the existence of  the dir. before
we're going to update it's utime.

The patch is pasted in the following link, could you give me some comment?

Thans!
