Ocfs2 devel - Aug 2004 - [Patch] fix bug 132 "link for directory does not change after mv subdir to another"

I guess new_dir_nlink & old_dir_nlink are orignally designed to record
the link number after changing.
But in fact, new_dir->i_nlink & old_dir->i_nlink is used directly. 
So either of the two patches below can work.
