The name scanner in xfs_scrub cannot lock a namespace (dirent or xattr)
and the kernel does not provide a stable cursor interface, which means
that we can see the same byte sequence multiple times during a scan.
This isn't a confusing name error since the kernel enforces uniqueness
on the byte sequence, so all we need to do here is update the old entry.
