This patch has seriously reduced file system deadlocks for several people.
It also makes concurrent file system access much faster in certain cases.
Since I have only heard good reports and no bad reports I'm going to
enable it by default.  If you do experience some file system deadlocks
please let me know.  You may revert to the previous behavior with 'options
LOOKUP_EXCLUSIVE'.  I will take this away after a month or so if there are
no problems.

Thanks,
Jeff
