Stephen, I started running the test on ext2 and ext3 on 2.4.24-pre2.

BTW, what exactly is the clear_inode and read_inode race that you mentioned?

I am not familar with the locking model in Linux kernel. I found
kernel_lock is
held before ext3_rename/unlink/rmdir, so I think it's ok. But I do not
understand
how it is done in the path walk.

Thanks,
Yoshi
