Hmm... that sounds a bit drastic and it would make the kernel client
behave differently from the fuse client -- from what I could understand
the fuse client does the sync ATTR_SIZE and thus doesn't have this issue.

Obviously, I agree with you that the performance penalty is too high for
such a common operation.  But maybe renames across quotarealms aren't that
common and paying the penalty of doing a full ceph_flush_dirty_caps() is
acceptable for such cases?
