>Environment:
>Description:
In a new and exciting episode of "I thought we fixed the last bug
from rename last week", plenty of drivers will happily fail VOP_RENAME
with EXDEV but neglect to call VOP_ABORTOP.  Notably, since one of the
vnodes might be of completely different type, a given driver
cannot decide to just not call abortop because it "knows" it's
not required.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Is there some layering marvel preventing us from checking for
EXDEV before calling rename?  otherwise, have fun
