I don't like how we return a non-NULL request on many error paths.  It
would be simpler to understand if mdc_rename() freed request on error.
So mdc_reint() fails but we still continue?  I don't understand that but
there are no comments about it.

We should call ptlrpc_req_finished(request) before returning on this
path.
