I added some more tests to catch this problem at:
https://github.com/amir73il/unionmount-testsuite.git #ovl_rename_dir

In the new version, upper recycling is optional and you can set a bound
to the number of layers. This is needed to catch the bug because the
scenario is:
- Rename populated dir in same dir
- Move the populated dir to another dir
- Re-mount
- Populated dir is empty

The following test run demonstrates it:

$ sudo ./run --ov=0 rename-move-dir
...
TEST rename-move-dir.py:37: Rename populated dir and move into another
 ./run --rename /mnt/a/dir102 /mnt/a/dir102x
 ./run --rename /mnt/a/dir102 /mnt/a/dir102x -E ENOENT
 ./run --rename /mnt/a/dir102x /mnt/a/empty102/dir102
 ./run --rename /mnt/a/dir102x /mnt/a/empty102/dir102 -E ENOENT
 ./run --open-file /mnt/a/dir102 -r -d -E ENOENT
 ./run --open-file /mnt/a/dir102x -r -d -E ENOENT
 ./run --open-file /mnt/a/empty102/dir102 -r -d
/mnt/a/empty102/dir102/a: File is missing
