Currently the locking order of inode locks for directories that are not in ancestor relationship is not defined because all operations that needed to lock two directories like this were serialized by sb->s_vfs_rename_mutex. However some filesystems need to lock two subdirectories for RENAME_EXCHANGE operations and for this we need the locking order established even for two tree-unrelated directories. Provide a helper function lock_two_inodes() that establishes lock ordering for any two inodes and use it in lock_two_directories().
