If someone tries to access the file while it is being removed,
pfs_vncache_alloc() will create a new vnode since the old one is no
longer in the cache, and possibly overwrite the vnode pointer in the
pfs_node before the old vnode is released, leading to a leaked vnode.

You're right, I didn't think of that.
