Hm, _seems_ that alone is enough prevent deadlock.  Throughput really
sucks though.  The other bits of my stab bump throughput for dbench 128
from ~200 mb/s to ~360 mb/s (appears it's the paranoid trylock loops).
ext3 does 775 mb/s with the same kernel.  Or, dbench 8 on ext3 gives
~1800 mb/s and ~480 mb/s btrfs.  Not exactly wonderful.

Hohum, guess I'll wait and see what your patch looks like.  I bet it'll
work a lot better than mine does :)
