The d_path() and related kernel functions currently take a writer lock on rename_lock because they need to follow pointers. By changing rename_lock to be the new sequence read/write lock, a reader lock can be taken and multiple d_path() threads can proceed concurrently without blocking each other. It is unlikely that the frequency of filesystem changes and d_path() name lookup will be high enough to cause writer starvation, the current limitation of the read/write lock should be acceptable in that case. All the sites where rename_lock is referenced were modified to use the sequence read/write lock declaration and access functions. When apply this patch to 3.8 or earlier releases, the unused function d_path_with_unreachable() in fs/dcache.c should be removed to avoid compilation warning.
