Apologies for leaving this bug for so long.

Is this bug still occurring?  I had a look for possibly related fixes,
and found:

commit 22e111ed6c83dcde3037fc81176012721bc34c0b
Author: Al Viro <v...@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date:   Sun Nov 19 20:25:58 2023 -0500
 
    rename(): fix the locking of subdirectories
[...]
    Cc: sta...@vger.kernel.org
    Fixes: 28eceeda130f "fs: Lock moved directories"

This claims to a fix a bug introduced in 6.5.  The fix went into
6.8-rc1 and was backported to 6.6.15, so Debian versions 6.6.15-1
onward should have it.

The lockup might alternately be fixed by:

commit a8b0026847b8c43445c921ad2c85521c92eb175f
Author: Al Viro <v...@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date:   Mon Nov 20 20:02:11 2023 -0500
 
    rename(): avoid a deadlock in the case of parents having no common ancestor

which went into 6.8 but was *not* backported.

If the bug is still occurring, can you say what type of filesystem
rsync is being run on?

Ben.
