[XFS] Don't update mtime on rename source
As reported by Michael-John Turner XFS updates the mtime on the source inode of a rename call in case it's a directory and changes the parent. This doesn't make any sense, is not mentioned in the standards and not performed by any other Linux filesystems so remove it.
