Log Message:
Pull up following revision(s) (requested by pooka in ticket #1007):
        sys/fs/msdosfs/msdosfs_vnops.c: revision 1.43
Fix a problem noticed by Reinoud: the fs would try to release an
unlocked vnode when trying to rename a directory.  The fix was to
shuffle some bits around and #pray.
The rename routine actually needs a very very major wide-angle whopping:
 * it takes locks out-of-order
 * it deals with references from SAVESTART lookups in interesting ways
 * I doubt there is any guarantee for correct operation if there
   are multiple concurrent accesses
 * the error branches might just as well call panic() directly
