Is this okay? Are > there any other filesystems which do this? I don't know of any other filesystems where this unique challenge arises. /proc almost qualifies but it never needs to be modified. It is certainly ok to go from multiple dentries to a single inode. I'm trying to remember why I choose to do that. I think both because it simplifies the locking and keeps us more efficient in the icache.
