v2->v3: - Remove the 2 persubnode API patches. - Merge __percpu tag patch 2 into patch 1. - As suggested by Tejun Heo, restructure the dlock_list_head data structure to hide the __percpu tag and rename some of the functions and structures. - Move most of the code from dlock_list.h to dlock_list.c and export the symbols. v1->v2: - Add a set of simple per-subnode APIs that is between percpu and per-node in granularity. - Make dlock list to use the per-subnode APIs so as to reduce the total number of separate linked list that needs to be managed and iterated. - There is no change in patches 1-5. This is a follow up of the following patchset: [PATCH v7 0/4] vfs: Use per-cpu list for SB's s_inodes list https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/12/1009 The main change is the renaming of percpu list to dlock list, as suggested by Christoph Lameter. It also adds a new patch from Boqun Feng to add the __percpu modifier for parameters. Patch 1 introduces the dlock list. Patch 2 cleans up the fsnotify_unmount_inodes() function by making the code simpler and more standard. Patch 3 replaces the use of list_for_each_entry_safe() in evict_inodes() and invalidate_inodes() by list_for_each_entry(). Patch 4 modifies the superblock and inode structures to use the dlock list. The corresponding functions that reference those structures are modified.
