These patches really should have my reviewed-by on them already, I
stared at them quite a bit (and fs/inode.c in general) awhile back.

(I was attempting to convert fs/inode.c to an rhashtable up until I
realized the inode lifetime rules are completely insane, so when I saw
Dave's much simpler approach I was _more_ than happy to not have to
contemplate that mess anymore...)
