+ * We need to perform this test in lookup done and treat on going
+ * create/DELETE as ENOENT.
+ * Reason:
+ Multiple clients A, B and C are attempting 'mkdir -p /mnt/a/b/c'
+
+ 1 Client A is in the middle of mkdir(/a). It has acquired lock.
+ It has performed mkdir(/a) on one subvol, and second one is still
+ in progress
+ 2 Client B performs a lookup, sees directory /a on one,
+ ENOENT on the other, succeeds lookup.
+ 3 Client B performs lookup on /a/b on both subvols, both return ENOENT
+ (one subvol because /a/b does not exist, another because /a
+ itself does not exist)
+ 4 Client B proceeds to mkdir /a/b. It obtains entrylk on inode=/a with
+ basename=b on one subvol, but fails on other subvol as /a is yet to
+ be created by Client A.
+ 5 Client A finishes mkdir of /a on other subvol
+ 6 Client C also attempts to create /a/b, lookup returns ENOENT on
+ both subvols.
+ 7 Client C tries to obtain entrylk on on inode=/a with basename=b,
+ obtains on one subvol (where B had failed), and waits for B to unlock
+ on other subvol.
+ 8 Client B finishes mkdir() on one subvol with GFID-1 and completes
+ transaction and unlocks
+ 9 Client C gets the lock on the second subvol, At this stage second
+ subvol already has /a/b created from Client B, but Client C does not
+ check that in the middle of mkdir transaction
+ 10 Client C attempts mkdir /a/b on both subvols. It succeeds on
+ ONLY ONE (where Client B could not get lock because of
+ missing parent /a dir) with GFID-2, and gets EEXIST from ONE subvol.
+ This way we have /a/b in GFID mismatch. One subvol got GFID-1 because
+ Client B performed transaction on only one subvol (because entrylk()
+ could not be obtained on second subvol because of missing parent dir --
+ caused by premature/speculative succeeding of lookup() on /a when locks
+ are detected). Other subvol gets GFID-2 from Client C because while
+ it was waiting for entrylk() on both subvols, Client B was in the
+ middle of creating mkdir() on only one subvol, and Client C does not
+ "expect" this when it is between lock() and pre-op()/op() phase of the
+ transaction.
