I completely agree with the rename. (Though could you please post
the rest of the rename patches for review)

Just a very small nit. My native language is not English but I would
rather you use "file-descriptor" (with an '-' as well) and not
use "description" in the English name of the lock. This is
because stated like that, "description" might refer to the
locks and not to the file in the sentence. file-descriptor is
more clear I think. (For me it was confusing at first before I realized
what you meant)

Just my $0.017
Thanks
