No I don't think so (missing the subtlety that is). brl_revalidate() sending
MSG_SMB_UNLOCK is OK as the receivers of MSG_SMB_UNLOCK are designed to be
idempotent, remember this can happen multiple times if smbd's fail so
it's OK to be triggered many times in a row (except for the broadcast
storm aspect of it, which you fixed in the previous patch :-).

RB+ and pushed !

Thanks,
