I agree, the original patch only affects new future architectures in
mainline Linux (i.e. nobody at the moment, since the patch was too late
to catch nios2). The old renameat syscall is not deprecated as such for
any existing mainline architectures, it simply won't exist for any new
ones.

I.e. if anything the test should be about whether [neither rename or]
renameat exists, not whether renameat2 exists.

Cheers
James
