I've gone through the first 5 patches now. All look fine except the
comments to patch 1/7.

I think we can add a new test that contains the last part of patch 4/7
("Check non-stale file handles of renamed dirs") and patch 5/7. And
leave the "fix test" part in patch 4/7.

This should be fine too, but I slightly tend to not move existing tests,
just add new cases to new tests.

BTW, thanks for the explaining in another reply, that did help.
