From: NeilBrown <[email protected]> Some ->lookup handlers will need to drop and retake the parent lock, so they can safely use d_alloc_parallel().
->lookup can be called with the parent lock either exclusive or shared. A new flag, LOOKUP_SHARED, tells ->lookup how the parent is locked. This is rather ugly, but will be gone by the end of the series when ->lookup is *always* called with a shared lock on the parent.
