Hi Chris,

Do you really need the parent inode in the filehandle?

That screws rename up pretty badly, since the filehandle changes when
you rename into a different directory. It means for instance that when
I do

open(foo)
mv foo bar/
write (foo)
close(foo)

then I have a pretty good chance of getting an ESTALE on the write()
statement.

Cheers,
  Trond
