Subject: [PATCH v1 2/8] Parallel dput()
Implementation of batched dput() which only grabs the dcache_lock once per
batch of dentries.
process_postponed_dentries() now operates on dentries in two phases. The first
phase is done with dcache_lock held, in which postponed_dput() will take care
of transition the dentry to the LRU, dropping it or killing it. Note that we
have to enqueue both the dentry and inode seperately as the dentry becomes
negative under lock.
Parents are enqueued and processed immediately because we wish to avoid
recursion. When enqueing denries for the second phase, we enqueue the child
dentry on a second list (postponed_dentries->pending_dentry_iput.dentries) as
we re-use the original list (postponed_dentries->pending_dput.dentries) as we
discover parents requiring dput.
The second phase handles what is left over from the original dentry_iput
(namely fsnotify, iput and dfree).
