I have completed my first-level regression testing, and it look ok now.

MAKE CERTAIN you have the commits from last night however - they were the
ones which make it appear, at least, to be "ok".

I'm not 100% solid on this yet, and was intending to wait until the weekend
was over to say "yes, its ok now" for certain.

My confidence level in -CURRENT right now, at least as far as the problem
with destroying filesystems goes, is about 90%.

However, note that I got a distinctly evil hard lockup with it a while back
(ie: no DDB trap possible, etc).  No idea what caused it yet, but I'm trying
to reproduce that now.
