There appears to be a race condition in nfs_putinode() that I'd like to
fix, but I'm not sure how the NFS sillyrename/sillyrename_cleanup code
is supposed to work.

Could somebody explain the motivation and intended behavior of this
code?

I think this might be the problem behind the reported oopses with 2.0.30
NFS, so I 'd like to get it fixed in time for 2.0.31.

Regards,
Bill
