76 * we're doing this outside the semaphore lock, it might return
77 * false negatives, but we don't care. It'll help in 99.99% of cases
78 * to avoid the semaphore lock. False positives simply cannot happen
79 * because the file in on the way to be removed and nobody ( but
80 * eventpoll ) has still a reference to this file.
