Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Thunar freezes after a period of inactivity.
   * The process has to completely stopped so the user can resume usage.
   * Users have reported the issue to happen more frequently when files have been modified in the current directory.
   * Several affected users have reported the issue resolved with this patch.

  [Test Case]

   * Open Thunar and wait.
   * Use another application to create files in the current directory.
   * After some time, the application will become unresponsive.

  [Regression Potential]

   * The patch eliminates a deadlock in Thunar's file monitor mechanism, so regression potential is small.
   * Since Thunar will no longer freeze over time with this fix, other bugs could become more pronounced. 

  [Original Report]

  Thunar keeps constantly freezing when I leave it inactive for a while.

  I haven't seen it freeze while using it, but when I use some other
  application for a while and switch back to Thunar window it is often
  completely frozen and I have to kill it. Zero CPU usage, window not
  responding. This started to happen a couple of weeks ago.

  I have the exact same problem in two different installations, one on
  virtual machine on Windows, other on a Asus Zenbook laptop.

  Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
  Thunar 1.6.10-2ubuntu1
