I believe it's not so simple: AIUI, diskfs_lookup actually returns
fnp in tmpnp (see assert (!tmpnp || tmpnp == fnp);), locked, so an
unlock is actually needed. The !tmpnp case however needs to be further
investigated, since in that case fnp would not be locked.  I guess this
testcase could be triggered by running a lot of concurrent renamers for
the same directory.

So nacked, but worth further investigation.
