loc->name will be something like "file-1@vol1-dht:vol1-client-0"
key will be something like "@vol1-dht:vol1-client-0"
name_len will be strlen of file-1   (strlen("file-1@vol1-dht:vol1-client-0")
- strlen(@vol1-dht:vol1-client-0))

We are therefore writing the filename part of the loc->name into new_name
because that is the actual filename that we want created. The rest of the
loc->name holds the key value which refers to the dht subvol on which we
want the file created.

Hope this helps.

Nithya
