Looks like strange. If we want to tackle this at per-FS. We should not
return double linked dir at first. Since double linked breaks dir
hierarchy, even if this one can avoid that Oops, double linked can be
easily the cause of another Oops, deadlock, etc.
Well, this patch is untested though. For example, somethings like
following. But, again, this fixes only one of cases in double linked.
(And to fix fully, my mind was already talked.)
