Yes, v2 replaces [1], please drop it. Sashiko was right that v1 still
raced with mkdir/rmdir (it depended on the entries after dropping
dev->lock), so I redid the fix and changed the subject, but forgot to
put a changelog under the ---. Sorry about that.

Done in v3, with the full history under the ---.
