Here are the sysfs scaling improvements.  I have to break them up, as there 
are 3 separate changes in this patch: 1. use an rbtree for name lookup in 
sysfs, 2. keep track of the number of directories for the purpose of 
generating the link count, as otherwise too much cpu time is spent in 
sysfs_count_nlink when new entries are added, and 3. when adding a new 
sysfs_dirent, walk the list backwards when linking it in, as higher 
numbered inodes tend to be at the end of the list, not the beginning.
