The patch backports upstream commit 9409e22acdfc9153f88d9b1ed2bd2a5b34d2d3ca:

> vfs: rename: check backing inode being equal
>
> If a file is renamed to a hardlink of itself POSIX specifies that rename(2)
> should do nothing and return success.
>
> This condition is checked in vfs_rename().  However it won't detect hard
> links on overlayfs where these are given separate inodes on the overlayfs
> layer.
>
> Overlayfs itself detects this condition and returns success without doing
> anything, but then vfs_rename() will proceed as if this was a successful
> rename (detach_mounts(), d_move()).
>
> The correct thing to do is to detect this condition before even calling
> into overlayfs.  This patch does this by calling vfs_select_inode() to get
> the underlying inodes.
