Entire area is convoluted as hell, so I'm splitting that series into _very_ small chunks. Patches alread in the tree close only (very wide) races in following symlinks (see "busy inodes after umount" thread some time ago). Unfortunately, quite a few narrower races of the same nature were not closed. Hopefully this should take care of all of them.
